Please note, I am not starting a flame war, just explaining our
experience and what we are doing in our company.

We are writing a major project with Lazarus at the moment (3rd version
of our flagship product). The IDE took some getting used to (I also
come from Delphi after 10 years), but after a few weeks when you start
noticing the cool features in Lazarus it is great. I remember when I
kept on saying - If only Dephi could do this or that, and I had no
control of those in the IDE.
One of the best features is that you have the code to Lazarus, so if
anything bugs you, change it!! I have made numerous small tweaks to
Lazarus already.
The only thing I can say I really miss is "Visual Form Inheritance".

For debugging, we have a Logging class which we use under Win32 and
Linux which gives us detailed information to a file or to a Log
Viewing Screen (all control by parameters passed to the app). The
logger output runs in a separate thread with a cache, so it doesn't
slow down the application.
For detailed traces, you can always use "gdb" with back traces. It's
a goldmine.
I have only been using Lazarus and Free Pascal for the last 6 months
but have never looked back!
