To me, even with good trust, the naked "let's talk" or "team meeting at X:XX" communications tend to come across like a dead canary.
I've had good trust with most of my managers but since they'd usually include a few words to indicate what they'd like to talk about, then the rare cases where that context is missing tends to imply that it's something too sensitive to mention over e-mail or chat. That's almost always bad news.
