They seem to be hogs when it comes to who gets to attend these, they spend thousands of dollars on flights and hotels and conference costs. Yeah, absolutely nothing comes out of it. They do nothing to share with the company of the point of attending these conferences, but their LinkedIn seems to grow tenfold within days..

I attended with boss. Spent entire time either wanting to gossip with me and others and bloating their Linkedin. I get it though these are meant for networking. All behind me now I quit
@OP that cr-p has been going on for years and will continue. The execs are constantly marketing themselves for the next gig. There’s a whole other PR game they’re playing which has nothing to do with the actual reality inside this company. Very icky, but hardly surprising.
