I work in "BigTech" and larger projects often have 'sync' meetings to give updates and note where you're blocked. You also typically have 1:1s with your TL (or maybe stakeholders with other teams depending on scope) where you typically give updates on what you're working on and might chat about challenges/blockers. These systems are crazy complex, proprietary, and constantly changing plus you need agreement from a number of people to do anything making it very easy to get blocked so you really need to give people a forum to escalate technical or non-technical blockers.
