A big condition for motivation though is if people are not pressured to rush features.
Being in a rush does not work long term and not being happy with the quality of the work done is very demotivating and impairs the sense of meaning. Micromanagement too.
Personally, the two week sprints and daily stand-ups did this to me in my previous job, but I can see they could be a source of motivation for others. So, how work is organized and managed is really important too and depends on the people in the team.
