Thank you for this review, you raise many good points! While a global recession is certainly something that is tough to predict, we agree that making smart decisions around hiring and spending is critical, especially now. This has been a big topic at all of our all hands and town halls this quarter. We have and are continuing to bring in some excellent new leaders in North America, which is such a great market for us, so we're excited for what's to come! Thanks again for posting! - Alyssa Perreault, Director of People Strategy
