I hear you. I feel like my personal experience has definitely influenced my view. I've seen management who want to have a timeline and a deadline from day 1, but don't want to put any effort into thinking out how they could allocate resources to make that happen or what was required of them. So they just ask someone else for a calendar and ask if someone's already made a ticket.
Maybe I'm just lucky but I've never experienced this. If anything, the companies I've worked for didn't do anything particularly agile, and were often deliberately trying to change habits and workflows to be more agile. This often came down from engineering managers who wanted to know how the whole project was going to go the day it started, so they could report upwards with a delivery timeline.
