Well, every company I worked with, "Agile" was just a means for management to keep feeling they're in control, when they're not, there's no such thing as in control, or to promote themselves with the higher ups. My best team is me alone, but other than that, the best team I ever had was one in which there was no meetings, no dailies etc. It was just me and a few others, receiving the outlines of what the final product had to do, what inputs and outputs it should process, and then filling this outline with code and hard work until it was whole. It was far from perfect of course, but we weren't bothered by unnecessary processes. There was no agile back then yet.... That said, the methodologies are not the problem. The problem is peoples attitude and mentality and how they use them.
