Or... Management could choose not run their software development organisation with the kind of micromanagement strategy that requires everything to be allocated in units of one day or less. It's another red flag that has become disturbingly common in the industry and suggests managers more interested in "visibility" and "metrics" than actually doing a good job, sustainably, by trusting their technical people to do theirs.

- selfhoster11 5y agoNo, that would be preposterous.
- icedchai 5y agoI love how "story points" aren't supposed to represent days, yet conveniently everyone winds up with 10-ish over their 2 week sprint, and it is totally micromanaged. Meanwhile none of the non-technical "product people" are ever asked to account for their time like this.
