No one “does” agile. Most likely you aren’t agile if this is the result. And most companies who think they are “doing” agile are the least successful ones.

I once asked my “agile certified scrum master” if we could repurpose the demo time because we had nothing to demo yet. She wouldn’t let me bc she said it would confuse the clients. I’m like look lady these people are smart enough to know meeting slots can be repurposed

Not in tech here but I always thought agile was really a marketing term to get billable hours kicked off sooner and lock in the work

Is April month salary slip generated in FIS Global ??? Mine is not showing, when it will generate?
I doubt they didn't give me quarterly variable , I joined in mid February and even salary came less than previous month.
Did they deduct tax in April month salary of it is then fine because they didn't tax in March month .

Kindly comments if anyone have idea .

Thanks
