The people who think this secrecy isn't warranted probably think their managers should treat them as equals and with respect enough to discuss those things relatively in the open. Its kind of a weird thing though - a meeting can just have who is in it and not a highly revealing title like "pick the 10% of your team for my RIF so I get my bonus".
