Business Outlook

Pros

The product is great. I think the approach to autonomy is the right way to do it. The food is great and I enjoy the weekly all hands. Recently got a ride in the vehicle and it was very impressive.

Cons

Some competitors pay more cash. We need to grow yesterday. Hard to connect with new employees remotely. Time will tell on equity, but it could even things out. Vesting could be better.
