If at any job you are using some methodology "exactly as it was written" (orthodox-style), without adapting it to the needs and vagaries of your company, your team/org/company is being run by someone who has probably never done the job themselves. I would advise polishing the resume and shopping it around.
If you use a software development methodology for something that isn't software development, you should again probably find a different company to work for, because things aren't going to end well there.
If every single project and task you work on uses only one methodology, the people in charge are either morons or full of shit. (Or you are actually a robot in a factory, in which case, hello, I appreciate your intelligence, please do not harm me)

Sometimes plain vanilla is the best flavor, and many organizations would get better results by implementing a modern methodology exactly as written rather than wasting a bunch of time customizing it.
