I am not advocating it, but it looks like Project Managers are phased out?
If Schwab is going Agile, there should be no place for Project Managers?

They add zero value. A bunch of leftover waterfall washouts still working like it's the 1990s spending most of their time creating status reports. But the 2/3 remaining who weren't downsized last October are extremely talented at kissing STS CPMO management schwass.
Only the naive would dismiss those values.
A good PM, especially in an organization that can’t modernize or walk away from waterfalls, runs interference for the workers. This is a huge value? Or do you prefer to get texts asking status every five minutes from eight different mo--ns making $1m a year?
Use your PMs. They can make life much better than the alternative.
(Not a PM. Used to hate PMs. Now they ‘work’ for me!)

Schwab is going to Agile?
That's a riot.
Just like we went to ITIL, Cobit, RUP, PCF, Kube, GCP...
We don't finish anything and we modify everything we do to make it virtually unrecognizable. Agile isn't coming. We will have lots of pretty waterfalls to look at as we warm ourselves on the mainframe.
PMs aren't going anywhere. And, if they do, we are even more sc--wed than we are.
