Shopify has unveiled a new tool for its more than 11,000 employees that assigns a cost to scheduled meetings in an effort to reduce unnecessary gatherings.
The Shopify Meeting Cost Calculator is a Chrome extension that shows the estimated cost of any meeting with three or more attendees once it's set up in Google Calander.
"The average size of a meeting at Shopify includes 3 people and the average length of a meeting is about 30 minutes," Shopify said in a statement. "A typical meeting of this size and length would cost between $700-$1600."
