This tech company is clearing out recurring meetings from employee calendars

In a memo to employees Tuesday, Shopify said it would do away with all previously scheduled recurring meetings involving three or more people and impose a “two-week cooling off period” before any of those meetings can be added back on to calendars. In a memo, a copy of which was provided to CNN, Shopify COO Kaz Nejatian also said the e-commerce company would reinstate meeting-free Wednesdays and limit large meetings with over 50 people to a six-hour window on Thursdays.

The company cut 10% of its staff last year after admitting to making the “wrong” bet about how long the pandemic-fueled online shopping boom would last. Slashing meetings could help make the company more efficient while also potentially boosting morale for some workers. “No one joined Shopify to sit in meetings,” Nejatian wrote. After the two-week scheduling freeze is done, Nejatian said employees should “be really critical” about what goes on their calendar.
