This is depressing but oh so true. I've worked at a few companies and they're all the same.

The business team schedules an hour meeting with the project manager once a week for two years to figure out the requirements.

I spend a sprint implementing the backend in parallel with a frontend person. We spend another sprint testing and fixing bugs.

Then the project sits in UAT for 6 months while the business suggests contradictory things.

Finally the project is shelved indefinitely due to budget issues.

Edit: fixed typo
