I feel like with every year that goes by, we're stuck with more and more meetings. Now it's meetings super early in the morning or really late in the day, basically forcing us to stay late. Anyone else facing some serious meeting fatigue?

I feel like it just comes with the field. I do agree that it is increasing with how many meetings there are. Most of these meetings I feel like should be emails.

Yeah, we actually complained a lot about this and we got them to comply to establishing a "no meetings on Fridays" rule. It's a small win, but it makes a difference.

You have to find the right balance and say no when the meeting isn’t a good use of your time. It’s easy for PMMs to get pulled in different directions and spend all day in meetings.

1000% here. Hard for me to truly get work done and hit deadlines because I’m in meetings all day or there’s something that needs to be prioritized every other day. It’s draining honestly.

I just got an offer from a company that I have mixed feelings about. Team seems great but Glassdoor reviews, not so much.

I don’t want to fall between two chairs for not taking this offer and then not getting any from other companies. What should I do? Best strategy?

I'm two thirds through the PMA Core Certification, and the info is great but the tests are a joke.
