Then goes on to schedule stand-ups- Grapevine

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

My team has two standup daily, one at 11 and another at 2.30. And the most funny thing is sometime these standup runs for 1 hour and we even have lunch at  1. I mean really it seems messed up. By 12 we are free from standup, hardly get the work rhythm from 12 to 1 and then lunch and afyer that within 30 minutes there would be next standup.

2 standup within 3.5 hours

Hi, I am working in a early stage startup and our CEO has established the culture of transparency where he shares every update regarding company funding, customer sales, revenue and answers all questions within company but one thing that has been bugging me is his micromanaging. 


He has integrated a bot in slack which ask for what did you do yesterday ? and what are you going to do today ? , Everyday


He also managed a spreadsheet of our tasks and takes the exact estimate in days makes a calendar view there and keeps asking up to update on our tasks progress in multiple meetings or on chat. 


I didn't had such experience in prior companies but he mentioned, such things were being followed in NyKa, DineOut, etc as well 

Does the well known companies like Phonepe, Uber, Zomato, google, amazon, Microsoft, De shaw, sprinklr follow this as well ? 

I just wanna check, is he doing too much or it this a standard in Indian companies ? 

Thanks to all whoever reply to this post, please share your current & past experience.

My CEO is Micro Managing Engineers 😡

Sounds like a daily standup update just in written format. 
 Or am I missing something?

Reporting time in office My team has Daily Scrums at 9:45am. And if you don’t reach the meeting room by 9:47, it gets marked on a leaderboard. If you cross more than 3 times in a month,pay fine 100rs for 4th, 200 for 5th…

I don't want to do it but how will you track work "productivity, efficiency"

I’m part of one standup where they start discussing in details. I’m like why???

People trying here to flex here by doing in details

Standups are meant to be short

Padhle likhe gawar hire kar lete h kya ji jira m likeh status update nai padh paate? Ek hi bakwas dicuss ho rai h roz din. Iske upar se 8 ghnata code bhi chaiye. What do program managers think of themselves ? 

Ye saare milke humko pagal bana rahe ., itne ga**d phati k ye.. 

I'm planning to say it outright to Manager, that if standups are going to run for 1.5 hrs then I will be commuting in this time. I dont get time for myself, if I just sit and listen nonsense that i can read.

What to do with daily 2hr standup? It eats my gym time.

Any blockers?  
 Yes, Daily Standup is my blocker.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Been doing them for a while - nowadays feel people have no recall of the principles and just go between tasks from left to right. Today I heard the most epic remark wherein a dev ops personnel just said “no blockers, just checking in!”. I found it to be hilariously honest - anyone else have any funny standup stories?
