A lot of management overhead and redundancy, a lot of NIH syndrome, and a LOT of stress due to every engineer doing on-call. On a large team, this might mean one week out of every 3 months. On a small team, it might mean one out of every 3 weeks.
Get a grip on how you treat your employees. Not all engineers are interchangeable cogs and 'fungible resources,' and not everyone thrives in a constant 'go go go' environment.
