Little 'a' agile was coopted by management consultants and became big 'A' Agile, which was agile-ish but revamped with management in mind.
I don't think agile has been in vogue so much as Agile. And lots of people hate Agile.
Common Agile traits (problems of hierarchy):
- plagued by non-falsifiable victim-blaming claims that if it's not working, you're doing it wrong
- standups as micromanagement
- estimates of unknowns as accountable contracts of work
- management "involvement" but no contribution
- often a complete lack of long-term vision and planning
- heightened demand for documentation as the blame games ensue
