Technical debt is the number one cause of developer frustration. Working with imperfect systems demoralizes programmers, making it difficult to do quality work.

I'd wager not being given time to tackle technical debt is indeed frustating...

The secret is just to do it anyway. I have yet to work in a job where anyone actively stopped me fixing technical debt, even if they never asked me to do it.

Depends on the work load. The company should make time for that and you should get paid for it.
