After working as a Software Developer for 14 years now, Scaled Agile / SAFe / Enterprise Agile is the best methodology I have seen if your plan is to burn out your teams as fast as possible.

Combining short sprints with long-term-planning while taking away autonomy from the team is not agile, it is just a lot of unmovable fucking deadlines in short succession.

@javahippie In some cases SAFe is acceptable if it's heavily modified and only meant as a temporary migration step from even more broken organizational models. In optimal case SAFe would only be in use for 2-3 years at maximum, and mainly be used to change management priorities from past practices.
