One of my friends said his prior company (Fortune 50 size) had one of the big consulting companies come in for an assessment. The main takeaway was too much time spent in meetings. They banned afternoon meetings and put time spent in meetings as a KPI on performance reviews for managers (I think there was a 4hr daily maximum as a target)

4h daily maximum meetings is still unreal. That's what I clock on my absolute worst days, most days it's just standup and an hour of backlog refinement
