There's a Google office that has a cluster of conference rooms with names like "Hell", "Limbo", "Jail", "No Time", "Over Your Head", etc. I've always wondered if telling an interview candidate "You'll be in Over Your Head today" has a psychological effect.
It could have one on employees too IMO. If I was the poor soul assigned to the long term maintenance of a legacy project, having to pass by Limbo, Hell and Jail everyday might just push you over
