How many hours of meetings do you guys tend to have per day/per week? I want to see if my schedule is highly unusual or not.

According to my Microsofts Viva, at my last job I spent roughly 40% of my time in meetings. Which was soul sucking, almost no work got done due to the overhead of attending / preparing for the meetings.

At my current role (checking Viva again), I average 6.2hr of meetings each week. The difference that has made is astounding. I'm much more excited to engage with work.

about 1 hour per week but I doubt that is usual
