"Ask Me Anything" Town Halls

Is it me or coincidence that time runs out on the Town Hall meetings...so, we don't get a chance to "Ask me Anything" like feedback about the 401k match once the following year AND the accrued vacation not paid even if laid off (confirmed by HR) ? After all, we are all shareholders (i.e. restricted award of 10 shs grant issued as 6 shs after taxes) just one time? i thought that would be granted at least annually? What would you ask?

The town halls are vetted and quite a few of them have proven to be pre-recorded. You wouldn't get to ask a real question anyways. The only people who get to ask questions are ones lobbing softball questions.

The folks running these meetings are some of the best when it comes to time management. Knowing that, ask yourself the question again and you have the answer.

Agree about timing of all town halls. They don’t care about western or middle U.S., or APAC. How hard would it be to offer a few times to accommodate live questions or switch up the timing so the underserved time zones occasionally get a chance for a live town hall. Not that answer questions that weren’t planted anyway.

I never go to the town halls. Pointless. They always start a couple hours before I start my day.

Usually the questions are vetted . They always have been even with visitors. They do not want them answering anything important only non sense

Even if you ask, they don’t answer. They only answer for BS questions regarding DEI, analyst program, coffee

It’s more like “Ask me anything as long as I want to answer it”
