Had the same thing happen at a company I was first hired at as a developer back in 2008.
They hired a director from outside the company because Six Sigma was still kind of a big deal and he was a black belt. It took them two years of consistent failure to figure out Agile was the way you did software development, not applying Six Sigma industrial manufacturing principles to software development.
The amount of analytics and metrics we were responsible for was insane under that director. I lasted two months before I tapped out.
