Agile and consulting... It already fails the moment we hand in the RFP which outlines the set list of stuff we'll have to work on within a certain timeline and budget. Starting with a big ass discovery phase outlining everything, but since it's written down in user stories we call it agile. Doing some rough estimates on some big chunks of work then comes back to hunt you because the client didn't share all the information but still considers your original estimate final. The quick feedback on sprints is good but clients see these demo's to add extra stuff in scope since they assumed it was part of the user story... The endless amount of documenting everything + the monitoring of the agile concepts just makes the whole hybrid model pure hell and goes in against everything agile represents. But hey, if it makes reporting for top management even easier then before, who cares about the actual implementation team right 😅
Nothing beats the moment when pm realizes that upstaffing with inexperienced Juniors actually slows down the work because of the needed training time.
Would not like to do the PMO work but happy when a good one joins a project though.
Consulting and the way their project-based contracts are structured make it impossible to actually do any form of agile at all.
Too close to home
This more of a hybrid version. Adopting an agilist mindset is very difficult.
Oh, I'm fine with hybrid. I've just never actually been on an agile project that's run as an agile project.
This example had a "buglog" and pre-staging to test and fix bugs before they went on so they didn't break staging. 😆
Pool of despair 😂
I feel every ounce of pain in this image. PMO says we’re doing a “hybrid methodology.” I wanted to leave the Zoom meeting after she used the word “hybrid”. Since when did agile include design document sign off, a deliverable deadline and 3 sprint zeros to “define the requirements”.
I think Agility is a spectrum. New products start with a evolving MVP concept, with waterfall like upfront discovery and design, which is inevitable. However, after MVP, it’s easier to be in a “develop on cadence and release on demand” type agile flow. For “legacy” solutions, both the technical debt and intrenched mindset/processes make it difficult to be more agile. Especially because the transaction cost of every release is high, making frequent releases difficult.
Wtf is hybrid, the worst of both worlds with all the current buzzwords?
For a true hybrid model, planning and requirements follow a waterfall path. Design, development, testing, and deploy should be agile. That means, prioritizing requirements to deliver a MVP first and so forth.
It's takes the same effort, same cost, same timeline...it really depends in requirements clarity; and culture which wants to celebrate quick wins vs discipline pursuit of the end goal.
I like waterfall. Doing my first hybrid now
Ouch, I feel this
Thank you for making me realize I'm not alone.
This is so true. Agile has become a buzzword and I just roll my eyes and groan when I hear someone drone on about Agile project methodology. It is just a waste of my time and resources.
I'm on a team where we have multiple devs pushing for agile and a PO that still thinks of everything in a waterfall format. It is an odd combo.
Not a PO
This is so funny. This is so true. I am saving this image
