I got rejected from a job recently and I strongly suspect it was because I went on a rant about how awful scum was against my better judgement.
Something I've noticed in the last 3-5 years is that it's become more and more common for companies to quiz candidates on their scrum knowledge during interviews. They don't care what you think of scrum (though they may phase their questions like this) they simply want to know you know how to scrum because they scrum. And like in most places you can assume that although "scrum is flexible" it's also religiously followed in practise.
Anyway, this company wanted to know what I liked and disliked about scrum and my initial answer was kinda similar to this post – that I liked the idea of it but have never seen it work well in practise. Obviously this was a bad answer because it meant for the next 10 minutes of the interview they were asking me to expand and were trying to understand if I was a bad culture fit. Which to be fair I probably was.
But the truth is everywhere I've worked spirt ceremonies are universally hated and typically viewed as a waste of time (especially spirt reviews). Planning rarely adds much value and since estimates are often wrong you either need to be overly conservative with your estimation (rendering it useless), or you're forced to cut corners to deliver stuff on time. And even if you do estimation perfectly ACs always change and extra tickets are always brought into the spirt because "it's essential". Standup is never 15 minutes – it's 10 minutes per team member who likes to hear their own voice, and 30 seconds to those who don't and who just want to get on with their work. Don't even get me started on the team building games...
I have seen companies implement it better than others though. The place I work at the moment does it surprisingly well. We do standups which are mostly mandatory, but everything else is optional for the vast majority of the team.
