Fridays are great because we don't have our useless and overly long morning stand-up meeting.

Fridays aren't great because we instead have an even longer sprint review meeting that doesn't start until 4:30...

That’s just cruel.

Usually like 35-40 minutes. Problem is, they are a growing start-up that hasn't grasped that they have grown too big to still have company-wide stand-ups.

Sheesh. That's like a townhall (except most of this info really is irrelevant to you) every morning then? The worst I've had is around 20 mins and the best is 5 (luckily 5 at the mo)

Feel your pain there. Used to work at an agency that did this and also had a sprint review on Monday morning...

Urgh, we finish at 3.30 on Fridays :-)

I thought my work was cool for finishing at 4:30 with the drinks fridge opening. 3:30! How good is that!
