We work in sprints but plan on roadmaps based on quarters one year into the future. So basically we just combine the worst of both worlds.

"Oh we have bugs from feature XY from last sprint? Never mind we need to follow the roadmap, we can fix it next quarter"

Fuck, I hate it so much

Who the hell came up with that? ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm sorry, but that's hilarious.

Not sure about GP, but that's basically what we did under "SAFe" (Scaled Agile Framework). PI planning means taking most of a sprint to plan everything for the next quarter or so. It's like a whole week of ticket refinement meetings. Or perhaps 3 days, but when you've had 3 days of ticket refinement meetings, it might as well be the whole work week for as much a stuff as you're going to get done otherwise.

It's as horrible as you're thinking, and after a lot of agitating, we stopped doing that shit.

SAFe SCRUM is a fucking scam. Anyone who proposes it as a solution to a problem is out of touch and doesn't recognize a waterfall when they see one
