So therefore, agile development is actually having the customer with you with each step you take in development of a software.

We, Engineers absolutely HATE this "agile" thing. Managers, of course, love it. Engineers just don’t dare say it for fear of losing our jobs in this lousy economy. But this so-called “agile” revolution did for software-development the same de-humanizing, humiliating transformation that assembly-line manufacturing did for other work long ago. We used to feel pride in our creativity, but now feel instead micro-managed and hyper-controlled: … I used to love my job, but I absolutely hate it now!!
