I don't even know why we talk with other people in companies anymore. We can't send emails because people don't read them. So we are drowning in calls where we include the whole team where we talk about our weekends for 5 minutes at the start and spend half talking about what could have been a email. So on top we have bots that do these summaries so people can be sitting on calls only paying half attention to then not read the summaries anyway.
Lmao I would have read emails if I wasn't drowning in irrelevant emails and they forced us to switch to outlook which not only got rid of all the automated filtering and sorting I had setup but also lacked the features to recreate them. I used to be on top of email and slack channels but they just added so much mandatory shit that I just couldn't wade through anymore. So, "We can't send emails because people don't read them" in my experience has been a management problem, not an employee problem. This was Oracle though, and they're particularly bad at treating employees as human beings
