Hard disagree. Unless you're writing software for clients a crapton of ceremony goes into JIRA tickets when 99.9% of them will never be looked at again once marked closed.
>>> If devs aren't working on priority items, are off target to timelines, are not following QA process or not following agreed specs then the company could be losing money.
JIRA is used when companies have no trust in their devs. We all use Git. There's a perfect, permanent record of anything I ever touch. Yet management is always worried we're going to "get distracted". As if that wouldn't be incredibly obvious.
It's like hiring a plumber to fix something then following them around the house to make sure they don't straighten your artwork or do the dishes while they're at at.
There's a pervasive theme that "PM knows best" among companies obsessed with JIRA. The best companies I worked at had no project managers at all and things ran great.
