Internal meeting culture at most tech companies is absolutely unhinged. I didn't _really_ notice this until I started my own company. Before that I was an executive at a startup, and having a day full of meetings was par for the course. Now that I run my own company I can say that 99.99% (maybe 100%) of internal meetings are unnecessary. I'm using the word unnecessary instead of useless as I think internal meetings can be productive, but in almost every case can be avoided. Instead, rely on internal communication and writing to discuss ideas. The feedback isn't immediate, but it doesn't have to be. Decisions can be made quickly without having a meeting. You just have to set your company up so that they don't rely on quick decision making.
