I scrum. You scrum. He she me scrum. Scruming. Scrumology. It's first grade SpongeBob.

I for one just look at my sprint and scrum meetings as pie in the sky goals and just keep working on the task I'm doing with the sprint goals as a "lol". If I was to follow the sprint goals and deadlines nothing would be working correctly.

This sounds like poor communication between dev and PO.

Depends. I've had plenty of tough calls with management laying out the impossibility of desired schedules only to have the Jira board estimates fudged in their favor, or similar, which puts pressure on the team to deliver on timelines they never would have estimated for themselves.

Ultimately it's a question of who's working by whose estimates.

Management not admitting time estimates from dev, management not willing to understand dev estimates (to maybe find a smaller solution together) and/or dev committing to not reachable deadlines are not scrum problems.
