I am not sure what you mean by bullshit but I will try to answer this question.
Not really. I work in mid-size company driven by marketing and sales. Besides daily stand-ups which could be considered bullshit there is not much meetings. Lead developer needs to attend few more to scope projects coming from marketing but its not that bad. Most time we can focus just on coding. The worst part is probably UAT process, but when you deal with mature projects it always will be a pain.
