That's not my experience. Usually it only takes me a few minutes to fix a bug once it has been caught by an integration test.

Depends on your system. Mine usually are huge. The integration test showing "this json reply is wrong" doesn't tell me anything else than I have to dig through all the layers.

Maybe you should break up that large system into more manageable chunks (e.g. microservices, engines, ...) and integration test those individually.
