Shopify tells employees to just say no to meetings
Former Shopify dev. For what it&#x27;s worth, this isn&#x27;t the first time they&#x27;ve purged all recurring group meetings. It happened several years ago as well. Surprised the article doesn&#x27;t make mention of that; maybe their source hasn&#x27;t been at the company long enough to know.<p>I won&#x27;t comment on the merits of this at large, but it was annoying for me at the time because I had several recurring calls with external partners, which were all summarily axed. The bot didn&#x27;t discriminate between meetings with 3+ Shopify employees, or 1 Shopify employee and 2+ external contacts. Hopefully they fixed that this time, because it was embarrassing having to explain to partners why all of our recurring meetings had gotten deleted.
