i could not agree more with what you wrote, besides that in my last 7 years and 5 teams only 1 was not pleasant to work with, exactly for the reason you mentioned.

Retrospective were done just because it was cool to say we were agile, the pression was too high, tecnical debt never addressed, it was

feature feature feature!

and then of course
bugs bugs bugs!!

but I managed to leave that team and then always found strong colleagues that shared passion and will to change, and good managers that fought on our side bringing our requests to the management, rather than just filtering them account ( yes yes, tell me and then i will never bring them up..)
