The only people who think auditors are bad are the ones trying to pull something an auditor would catch.

I don't think that's a reasonable conclusion. I had to work on software in a heavily audited (finance) environment and there were a lot of beaurocratic obstacles related to that, but the code was fine and unaffected by the whole process. I would have been happier not having to think about audit requirements and just focusing on making working software.
