I hope they love us.

We are extremely generally at our core.

We are pretty unsatisfied.

Generally, we try lots of different things.

We have probably one of the smartest, most strategic leaders in the marketplace, and that really powers the culture of the place.

We have a set of people who are really, it's pretty flat still.

You'll have principals and associates and analysts are not afraid to talk to me or anybody else.

And we like it that way.

If you have a good idea, bring it up.

We don't really have all the hierarchical stuff of a traditional, what you think of as an $800 billion manager.

To me, it still feels good.

pretty flat and we want to keep that feeling there's the played football at amherst and there was this game that we lost my senior year against wesleyan we lost 24 17 we're definitely not supposed to lose anyone on wesleyan you weren't supposed to win it was like sunday the day after the game we're all sitting there and the coach came out he was like thumb guys finger guys

Don't blame anyone else.

Don't be a finger guy.

We're all thumb guys.

And the point was take the accountability yourself.

Stop trying to blame everything else.

And when things go wrong or we're trying to create something, people take it on themselves.

And we have that just embedded culture of just owning that ownership of both successes and mistakes.

But really on the mistake side, people aren't always looking to blame other people.
