How do you brief?

My latest employer insists on briefing everything including what are basic manoeuvres that are part of the requirements to hold a licence. My previous employer treated us as proficient pilots and only required briefing of the non-standard items. I fear that an over-reliance on a well known and word perfect script will not help on the day it becomes necessary to use a bit of thought.

Someone mentioned task duplication re the FMS check and brief.
On Airbus, the intention is that everything in the FMS is checked when the PM returns from his walk around. OEBs are now done in cockpit prep.
That leaves just just a quick summary of weather, notams, radar use, half of INITB, taxi route, first tracking point and Abnormals. Short and sharp.
