Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective. We appreciate hearing both what is working well and where you believe we can do better. We're pleased to hear that you valued our compensation, benefits, flexibility, and approach to workplace expectations. We recognize that periods of significant change can be challenging. As our business continues to evolve, we strive to make decisions that position the company for long-term success while supporting our employees through transitions. We understand that change can impact morale, particularly when its purpose or benefits are not always immediately clear. We will continue working to improve our communication, transparency, and support throughout these periods. We're also sorry to hear that your experience with our culture felt cliquey. We are committed to fostering an environment where employees feel included, connected, and able to contribute fully, regardless of team, location, tenure, or role. Creating a strong sense of belonging requires ongoing attention, and feedback such as yours helps inform those efforts. Thank you again for sharing your perspective. Employee feedback plays an important role in helping us learn, grow, and create a better experience for all employees.
