      Thank you for the review. Over the past year, our leadership team has worked to mitigate the impact of various shifts in our business. There’s a limit to what can be shared broadly in situations like this, and we understand the unfortunate frustration that this can create. That said, we truly value your feedback and are committed to being as transparent as possible to help our employees understand the rationale behind difficult decisions and all the tradeoffs considered.
