I don't like this article. What will happen if Agile people all of a sudden stop preaching Agile or slightly rename it to Extreme Programming or something? how will we know then who's not a qualified project/product manager? how can we filter out orgs that don't know what they are doing? Agile is super-useful. As a filter. Let's not break this, please.

I'm the author, and funnily enough I absolutely agree. The moment a company thinks being "Agile" is interesting enough to mention at any stage during interviews, I'm out. I usually get to know the engineers at an employer well enough to confirm it was a good decision to ignore them after the fact. Unfortunately, I still ended up joining one of these places because they made me an extremely comfortable offer... which I'm grateful for, but it sure doesn't make me any less pissed off every morning.
