Giles Bowkett: Why Scrum Should Basically Just Die in a Fire

Your post could be called &quot;Why the company culture where I experienced scrum should die in a fire&quot;<p>It is all about the implementation. Just today I had a manager, remind the developers who were talking too much that the meeting needed to be over in 15 mins. Horrible long meetings is a culture thing.<p>Blaming someone for something because they left early is a culture thing.<p>Managers sitting everyone standing is a culture thing.<p>Scrum is a tool. You can use it badly, and horrible cultures will use it badly.

Having worked at Google, I can say that there are definitely large chunks of the company that do not do agile. Currently working at Spotify, I can say that while the company definitely does agile, most of the teams AFAIK don&#x27;t do Scrum. There&#x27;s a publicly available Spotify Culture video that explains this and other things.
