Yes - I'm confident in our ability to build and support our product for several reasons. We've recruited exceptional talents who believe in Volta's mission, and we are making deliberate adjustments to better listen, learn, and support them. I agree that the Glassdoor reviews are challenging. However, these reviews, along with employee feedback, hiring, and exit insights, are instrumental in actively positioning the right people and systems to improve the overall employee experience. For instance, we've been hiring experienced leaders to better mentor our team.

Employee reviews are a very underrated way to judge a company. Especially one that offers breakthrough tech
