Thanks for this feedback and for these encouraging words. Regarding your feedback on being clear about expectations, that's resonant, and is certainly reinforced by our Gallup scores answering the statement "I know what's expected of me at work." While we saw a little progress there in June's survey, it still represents the lowest score of any of the 13 Gallup scores. This progress will also require a primary focus on manager development and training, which is a 2018 focus and will continue in 2019. We'll keep holding ATM meetings every other week, and continue to provide significant transparency through those and other venues. Thank you for contributing to the company's mission each day! Best, Dan

Remains the Best Company I've Worked For

Business Outlook

Pros

The positives of working here are, but not limited to: - great leadership (the executive leadership team truly cares about team members) - amazing benefits - career growth opportunities - ability to work from home - provided everything needed to do my job well - no micro-management (at least from my perspective) - great (for the most part humble) team members

Cons

These aren't really cons, but things we need to continue to work toward: - continue to tighten spending so we can become completely cash flow positive - continue to work with or remove team members who seem to take advantage of (abuse) all of the great benefits that are offered - continue to replace team members who don't stand up to our company attributes and values of being smart, hardworking, and humble (as well as team-oriented)

Thanks very much for your review and for your positive comments. I'm glad to hear your experience has been good over the past three-plus years. We're definitely continuing the focus on building to profitability as we scale--enabling our revenue growth to outpace our expense growth, and we're encouraged by the progress we see there. We'll also continue to emphasize the importance of performance management in any cases where there are performance issues like what you describe. I feel grateful that in the vast, vast majority of cases we have team members who are living up to the operating principles and cultural attributes of the company. Thanks again for your comments and for your contributions!
