Thank you for being open with us. We need feedback to learn about how we can improve. Micromanagement can definitely be challenging. We're dedicating resources towards certitude, which means being vulnerable, promoting authenticity, and empowering others to fully demonstrate trust. We're glad to hear that you value our flexible work environment! We have embraced an agile working model for select roles, enabling colleagues to work from home or in a blended, hybrid model. We really appreciate your feedback, thank you for the work you do with us.
