"I really like the fact that Descartes is so globally distributed, so I get to know a lot of other countries and other cultures and just recently in December of last year 
(2018), I got a new position in the Product Management office, which was also newly created in Descartes. And it's actually a position that's meant to help all of the other product managers to be more efficient and do a better job of focusing on the things that really matter, which is building good features for our customers to grow And I really love it!"
