Agile always comes off as if it were intended for small consultancy firms who do specific jobs for individual customers. That honestly doesn't sound like a place I'd ever like to work at. I'd rather work for a company that puts out mass-market products with near-monopoly status and takes a stance of "you'll take what we give you". Basically something like Microsoft or Adobe.

To me, agile is endless micromanagement. Tracking every little thing in JIRA and having constant pointless meetings. The next time I look for a job, I'm going to categorically rule out any company that uses JIRA at all.

And then there's a particular quality associated with agile that just comes off as cult-like. A while back, I was googling "scrum master" to find out what one actually did, and I stumbled on the official scrum page [0]. Some of the terminology on that page just jumps out at me saying "this is a cult" (in particular, the phrase "servant-leader" is used in an almost religious sense). If someone were to state what's on that page in real life, I'd start backing away slowly. And the cult-like feel is only reinforced by the agile community's peculiar use of ordinary words such as "story".
