Absolutely, if you have buy in from management to attack the technical aspects it's a much better environment overall.

I mean to speak more to the situations where you have non technical management, or at least those that don't understand the repercussions of bad technical decisions.

In those situations, you need to take it on yourself to make sure you're handling the technical balancing act yourself.

Yeah, I agree. As developers most of us want to develop the best that we can all the time, either new features or cleaning up technical debt, but the pressure from the business to always push to get things done as quickly as possible is very stressful to deal with.
