And a lot of this factory salespeople are some of the earliest salespeople that I hired at Snowflake.
And the common theme is they want to build something.
They want to build something.
They're excited to go build something.
They believe in the CEO.
That's a material thing.

Eventually, that will come to bite you in your career.
What's your biggest daily challenge?
Recruiting, building sales teams.
The number one pain point.
