Every new employee who joins our company, they get a call.
From me, and.
I tell them two things. I say, congratulations and welcome. You are now a part of something bigger than yourself.
I say, our.
Little company has an outsized impact on.
The world, and you're a part of it.
And I sort of share the vision.
And what they're joining.
And then I tell every single one of them, I only have one expectation of you. I expect you to.
Take yourself on.
And I say to.
Them, we will.
Give you some of those resources. We will give you some of that.
Education, and.
Some of it you're gonna have to do on your. And whether you stay with us for.
A short term or long.
Term, my.
Expectation is that you leave here with.
The knowledge that you.
Are a better version of yourself. Because you worked.
Here even if you.
Hated it here, you will leave here a better version of yourself.
