I feel pretty lucky, meetings are rare for me, just shoot an IM. "I'm working on XYZ, almost done. What do you want me to work on next?" or "Hey Bob are you done with that test environment" etc. I might go have one-on-ones maybe once or twice a week if it's too long/complex a conversation for IM. And those don't usually take long, maybe 15 minutes? That said I'm a mid-level dev and I know the more senior devs & boss are in meetings more often working out how things will work with other departments and such.
