waterfall is a terrifying word that I never want to hear from a PM unless it's preceded by the words "how stupid is"

The only development model on most project that I've been on is the "Rapid Prototyping" model, because half the time the client changes their mind even though the details have already been agreed on during the prep stage.

We need a horror tag on this. Bring back memories I don't want to recall anymore.

Wait...
"The PM itself is not a fault, but he is not a good PL"
what is different between the Project Manager and Project Leader?

Also, visiting the comment section, I am kinda glad that there are many fellow SEs read this and experiences the same pains

 

[ShiroNek0]

To be fair, not only waterfall, scrum can be an absolutely shit show too...

Man sometimes that hurts to read this manga...

Here's a horror story to keep you awake at night: a high-up in marketing selling a complete project to his buddy pal, shooting from the hip, based on what he thought was a similar enough project, without consulting anyone with any technical expertise. A DESIGN WHAT, WHO NEEDS THOSE ANYWAY, WE'RE MAKING MONEEEEY YEEEHAAW! (exaggerated for impact)

Ah yes, the traditional reward for working hard and putting out a fire...here's another fire to go put out.
