I’m tired of planning for the entire quarter in a week alongside deliveries. Apart from that, the org decided that they want to club multiple PIs into one big 10 sprint PI, so as to increase capacity to 10 from 8(oh wow, so smart, let’s give promotion to the one who suggested doing this) Now I’m stuck the entire week to just planning, creating dependencies on miro, creating stories on rally, talking to people.(I’m not an ic unfortunately) Why is there so much unnecessary bureaucracy here? It’s like we are moving away from agile to waterfall. I free like the industry is going backwards. (I saw this happening outside swa too) Also, do you guys hate becoming TLs/managers too? Tc:180k
Agile does not exist inside a big company
SAFe is not agile whatsoever. It's a tool for corporate bureaucrats to get people to work harder (not smarter) while they feel cool and cutting edge.
