Exactly. Managers look for metrics and point and velocity are what they use.

- Lutger 5y agoMetrics are not bad. Story points and velocity are usually bad metrics though. It's not a coincidence the consultancy sector uses scrum. They get paid for their output, usually by the hour, and scrum measures output. If a consultant implements a load of useless features that make a product worse, but do so very quickly, then that's a great success for them. It's not fundamentally different from rewarding developers for the number of lines of code they write.
