My team does this, with the only downside that people are unlikely to pay attention. It at least satisfies mgmt without getting the team bogged down for an hour.

But if there's a problem I already bring it up via online chat, and will at least get private messages from the extremely shy people (which is most of them).

		If stand up takes an hour, there’s some real issues there. I have the occasional one take longer but they generally last 5-10 minutes. Anything that needs discussion is taken to separate calls.
