Agile development is a methodology for building software, and it’s a good one! But that’s it! Period, end of story. Smaller teams cranking out measurable units of software every 2-4 weeks and iterating toward usable features has done wonders for software development.

Your team says they use Scrum in two-week iterations. And, in order to “finish” everything inside the timebox, you don't do any of these things: Refactor to simplify the code or the tests. Create automated tests. Use formal acceptance criteria on a story or for the iteration or the project. That means you have work that's in progress—not done.
