The big meetings were mostly about constructive criticism. There was also a policy where if you had a problem with someone you'd immediately step in another room with them and hash it out. Some things are better discussed 1 on 1 rather than in a group. If you consistently had lingering issues with people this would hurt your chance for promotion. You were expected to deal with issues as soon as they arose. The CEO believed that lingering issues can greatly impact your productivity and are a huge distraction. I tend to agree.
