Threatening to put people on PIP, a few people tried to get excused from these meetings (even those who are rather all stars when it comes to output imo).
At my workplace we now have 90 minute daily standups because it was perceived the employees are not doing enough quick enough. It has obliterated any hope of progression in a single work day without overtime (unpaid!) since these typically will run over by a long margin, eating up what little time we had for actual development.
