Might as well put the whole Agile/Scrum crap on there while you're at it...

Disagree. My company does it well and I think it helps productivity across the board. My last job called our process agile and it was really just water-scrum-fall. Which was horrible and we devs were all miserable.

My experience with it was not like that... resources were thin but decision makers were poor at managing and simply wanted to take in the buzz to make it seem like they were doing better than they actually were. They could've made another Office Space movie about us. Needless to say, it's no surprising the CTO left and later on the top division chief left.... all the while, management kept putting pressure on making sure we fulfilled the caveats of agile/scrum even though we didn't have the bandwidth to do all of it. Documentation is important, sure, but when management makes everything a P1 just cuz they failed to see things though... well, don't find the time to put everything down in the kanban.... yada yada yada. No thanks

But, is that a problem with Agile or with your company? That's my point.
