>> A ping on chat and within 1 min multiple people can be in the discussion without even having to move.

Have you ever tried this? Half of them won’t reply to you for the next x hours, others will have meetings, and others will say not right now I’m swamped. Most of those excuses are because they can’t be bothered joining a “quick call” with you, not because they’re actually busy.

100% opposite experience here, but you know the saying, if one person won’t accept your invite it’s probably them, if nobody will accept your invites…

But if they had meetings in the office they wouldn't be participating anyway so that isn't relevant.

I guess it is a difference in employees but I've never had people reject a huddle outright. They might need a bit of time but it always happens.
