Sprints are also detrimental to “soft values” in my experience: * Engineers rushing to wrap up for the sprint (stress and decreased quality is bad for morale)

Sprints are also detrimental to “soft values” in my experience: * Engineers rushing to wrap up for the sprint (stress and decreased quality is bad for morale) * Engineers getting monitored and measured on a task level since all tasks need to be estimated (micromanagement, lack of trust) * Agility is decreased since everything needs to be planned (lack of autonomy) Sprints tend to become “phony deadlines”, a key component in “Teamicide” (from “Peopleware”). I’ve been trying to come up with benefits but I’m coming up short. Wish someone could tell me!
