Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate you as an employee and look forward to your contributions. With regards to WFH capabilities, our company has shown the ability to engage all employees across all regions on a WFH solution in a very short time to respond to the COVID crisis. In the past, while we had the ability to support WFH, we felt that our best ideas happen in a team setting with the interaction of our people. As we move forward, we know that work has changed and our policies around WFH are likely to evolve for everyone.
