Scrum

[Danthus]

Can anyone recommend any links to Scrum resources, I don't need the is and outs of it, just an overview, glossary key principals etc.

Project I'm currently on is using SAFE: https://www.scaledagileframework.com/

Its agile scaled up for big projects (we're around 500 people between us and the customer).

Good starting point is the Scrum guide.

SAFe is a scaled delivery framework. Calling it an Agile scaled framework is horrible but I guess that's how they refer to it...
Agile is a mindset and cultural beliefs. Using Scrum certainly could mean you're working in an Agile way as in embodying its principles by using empirical evidence to find better ways of doing things but two are not the same. There's many ways you could be working in an Agile way. The Agile onion is a useful way to think about this. https://www.adventureswithagile.com/2016/08/10/what-is-agile/

SAFe calling themselve a scaled Agile framework is almost an oxymoron.

IMO this isn't particularly helpful - especially when I've seen plenty of really capable Scrum teams struggle horrifically moving to SAFe.

https://www.atlassian.com/agile/scrum has some great stuff on it.

SAFe, a cunning way for consultancies to extrapolate lots of money from stupid people under the guise of "agile transformation"

They seem to introduce new ones purely to exploit companies to be fair.
