Agile company that is really not agile.

If you had a dollar for every dev who complained about the fact that they don’t do agile right, you’d have a small fortune.

First, whatever “real” agile is, the commercialized version of it that is sold today is absolute crap.

Agile has become a toxicity that has infected this industry. So much time and money is wasted with overbearing, low value ceremonies that it’s actually sickening.

Imagine if other industries adopted this bullshit. Seriously my last two companies waste an entire week every 10 weeks where devs sit around in meetings all day trying to figure out what they’re going to do in the next weeks.

I think most agile today is 50% ceremony / 50% actually work. It’s disgusting and feels worse than no process at all.

"Agile" company that is (really) not agile.
