I used to work at Microsoft teams org and absolutely hated it. Felt like it slowed down productivity so much and was extremely distracting.

What are you referring to specifically? Having an executive assistant? Daily 30 minute check ins with assistant?
“Closing the loop” messages in Slack (or in my case Teams)
We’d spend time trying to figure out what was and wasn’t done on a project instead of using the time to actually finish the list.
I don’t have a solution, it’s just a very annoying problem.
