I cannot imagine they are getting a good return on 700 people weekly all hands meetings..

Yeah, like, who's gonna seriously follow those? One in ten? PMs and POs?

I honestly think that in all the companies I've been the all hands should've been a 5 minute read email, rather than yet another meeting that is splitting my day.

Many people I know use those meetings to workout or take care of chores. You don't have to sit there and be mad your time is being wasted, go ahead and make use of it if your manager is leaving you idle.
Sure but still, as I'm doing work that requires concentration splitting my morning or afternoon is something I can't fully make up by doing side activities.
