For engineers moving up the career ladder, the mounting number of meetings expected of engineering managers can end up being a distraction that does more harm than good.
Is 'engineers' a word meaning 'everyone' in that headline?

My Stupid Idea of the Day(tm):

Each manager is given a certain allotment for meetings each time period. The allotment is used up based on the salary of everyone they invite to the meeting. They don't know the size of the allotment, or the salaries, they just know the % of the allotment left for that time period. Once the allotment is used up, they can no longer schedule meetings until the next time period.
