Back in 2014 Spotify released some videos[1][2] about their engineering culture. From what I understand these were widely cited by consultants and the squad/tribe/chapter model was implemented verbatim at a number of companies. I'm guessing that is "getting Spotified".

Spotified basically means your company decided it was Agile™ and forced the Spotify model on teams so essentially now you’re a cargo cult.

Our problem at the moment is we have no processes/documentation because we’re Agile™
