Agreed. Use your experience to shape the direction your teammates are moving in. Be an architect, and let them handle your light work.

It depends VERY much about the content and invitees of the meetings.

If you're there to give your expert engineering feedback, awesome. If you're there to receive the information you need in order to provide expert engineering feedback, awesome.

So often, I find, meetings are too broad and end up oversubscribed. Engineers are in a 2 hour meeting with 10 minutes of relevance.

There are serious differences in meeting culture, with vast implications oh the amount of efficacy you can juice from the attendees.
