Pros

The new leadership that was brought in is an absolute abysmal perplexing decision. I can't really understand why we brought in a "Technology Leader" who knows nothing about technology and continues to have obfuscating conversations with people that know what they're doing. Welcome to the Urban Meyer world at Markel.

Cons

We have no direction or real adequate technical leadership
