Agile? Awry?!
Agile = "many small “waterfalls"?
Check this article:

Here I quote,
"In one large tech company, their product team focused significant upfront time writing small requirements (called “user stories”).
These requirements were put into a ticket queue as tasks for the next available engineer to start working on. The bar for documentation to keep the queue moving became high. Ultimately, this process became one of many small “waterfalls,” where work is passed from a product department to designers to engineering.
This process is exactly what Agile was meant to eliminate. It is no wonder that the CTO of this company said, “my engineers feel like short order cooks in the back of a diner.”
