As an agile coach I often have Scrum Masters come up to me because management is complaining there are too many meetings in Scrum and that their developers aren't 100% utilised on developing the products. I also have developers asking me if they can skip the sprint review and retrospective as they have some work to finish off for the sprint and that is a much better use of their time than sitting in a meeting.
