If they are mandated, that's just as bad I agree.
At my company we have tonnes of in house Lunch and Learns (on paid time, non mandatory) that are effectively "I found this super useful thing and want others to know about it"
And I'll join these things, and see (person), who is on my team, in it too. Later I'll hat with them about it, or at least try, and they'll have zero clue wtf I'm talking about.
And it becomes obvious they just joined the meeting to give the illusion of caring, they prolly were afk the whole time. And I suspect this cuz they often do the same for our "in team" mandatory important meetings discussing critical stuff on the project.
