For the first 3 years working on the company I work with, we had no meetings. As the company grew we started doing more, now we do around 1 per day.

We do 1 on mondays to prepare the week, then daily meatings of around 15-30 minutes the rest of the week. Then we do another one on fridays to evaluate the week and prepare for the next one. In the friday meeting we also do some retrospective.

When working remote we've noticed that doing short daily meetings really helps us stay in tune and work better as a team, as eveyone is informed and knows what eveyone else is up to, and how the project is going.

Our work is more effective this way, not so much wasted time.
