As many as 70% of the developers who took part in the HackerEarth “Behind the Code” developer survey reported that fewer meetings would help them achieve “100% productivity” at work. This comes at a time when meetings and video conferences have become the order of the day with Covid-19 pushing organisations to move towards Work From Home in order to continue with operations.
Working longer hours wasn’t an issue but developers said they wanted fewer meetings as it cuts into productivity. The survey found that 97% of developers who worked over 60 hours reported they were happy with their job.
