Legend has it that Pre-COVID, a zoom meeting with the camera off was called a 'phone call'. I hear that they want to bring us back to the offices so we can get pulled into impromptu versions of these 'phone calls', so that we can listen without the client knowing we're there to see how a partner handles difficult conversations - or so that's what we've been told at least.

We didn’t secretly have people in the room but after quickly running through introductions, no one would remember unless the associates spoke. It was a great way to learn how to handle difficult clients, sell work and discuss technical issues.

If I must meet with people, I prefer face-to-face. Believe it or not I find there are fewer distractions in a FTF meeting.

During Covid, my middle school kid went to class over Zoom. They were allowed to use an avatar instead of leaving their camera on.

Depends on how engaged you are in the meeting, very engaged I prefer zoom so I can do cheat sheet
