"Quarterly agile planning meeting" might be one of my favorite oxymorons now. Thank you!

  I'd be laughing if I wasn't in the middle of pre-pre planning for our next 14 week scaled-agile program increment and crying/barfing.

    Are you guys doing treks instead of sprints?

  SAFe = "Agile" for managers who miss Waterfall projects
  • suggestion 3y ago
    SAFe is literally just Waterfall with extra steps (agile ceremonies) and it's mind numbingly stupid.
    • rawgabbit 3y ago
      I thought I was the only one who admitted SAFe is waterfall just with the right buzzwords to avoid the agile police.
      • suggestion 3y ago
        It's because DoD contracts require or greatly favor "agile" practices via CMMI and ISO certs. Government employees are too incompetent to understand how the big 5 simply pull the wool over their eyes, like they do for everything.

    So, there's a for-profit company selling the SAFe "process"? Does this have something to do with filling in new government checkbox requirements for contractors? https://scaledagileframework.com/ https://scaledagileframework.com/
    • suggestion 3y ago
      Yes, that's literally why it exists.
