The worst thing about Agile is the commercialisation that came with agile training coaches and certifications. It always boggles my mind when realising how many people think “agile” means sprints, backlog grooming, Fibonacci sizing or planning poker and not what’s in the manifesto.

When you take it back to its roots and cut out all the Scrum or SAFe nonsense and adapt it to your team it can really work.

Note, I’m not saying estimates are bad per se and can imagine teams for whom it does work, but it would have to be something that the team is happy with not an impose-from-above methodology…
