How Big Tech Runs Tech Projects and the Curious Absence of Scrum
- MattGaiser 5y ago> First-class developer tooling is a given This has been a major pain point at both my current company and my prior one. So much time is lost to tooling or devops vs far superior paid devops.
- Zigurd 5y agoThis is unsurprising in that Scrum does not scale up to large technology industry environments, and team expertise ofen outstrips the roles defined in Scrum. SAFe, on the other hand, looks like a bureaucratic mess to tech companies. The article suggests SAFe is used in non-tech companies. As for "No formal methodology" that is probably a good thing for companies that institutionally understand software development. It may also be another way of saying "Agile, but without the Scrum dogma and jargon." The article's emphasis on product management is also spot-on: "Product owner" is a debased and unempowered job title. Product manager is the job where product direction is set and communicated.
