I also find peace and quiet important but would just buy noise-cancelling headphones.

(BTW, you misspelled "bureaucracy")...
As developers, we are flooded with pointless paperwork and "processes". This is admittedly because we don't have enough people, or people filling appropriate positions (I'd kill to have a configuration manager) so that we can spend more time actually writing code.

Configuration engineers are key to the success of a software team. Overlooked positions for sure, in most shops I have worked at. Fortunately, my current shop has two of them.

I go through cycles of burnout and lack of motivation. They usually last between 1-2 months per year. I am less productive than I would like during these times.
IMHO, outside of software, hardware, company bs constraints, your mental state dictates your level of productivity.

Same here. It sucks.

I work in a team of morons who insist on quick sloppy work. The head of quality, and also phb agree with that. A quickly "developed" prototype is all what they want to do. "What can go wrong?" - "What a stupid question, showing your negativity! When something went wrong, we can just solve it afterwards..." Failing even SIL 1 not only due to lack of process documentation, but because of contents.
Nota bene: we are working in fire detection and fire fighting - literally.

Well if something goes wrong the proof disappears so...
