+## Meeting with Andrew

+- General direction. 2024 company goals. What's the philosophy? Growth? Quality?
+- How do you envision my team, who do I report to?
+- Is the P&L somehow decentralized?
+- How do you and Humphrey split responsibilities?
+- Things I've liked so far
+  - Good attitudes, good spirit
+  - Product is clear
+  - Lots of room for improvement
+  - If the product is making money with the current simplicity, we can surely do better
+  - Engineering culture seems great
+  - Data is in a bad shape, I don't have data
+- Things that concern me
+  - "Quick", "all out" attitude
+  - Systems are growing uncontrolled, this will bite us in the ass soon and will hurt people's work
+  - The huge proportion of new joiners is going to be a cultural challenge
+  - Data is in a bad shape, I don't have data
+- What do you think about my plan?
+  - Couple of weeks listening in
+  - Ceremony to kickstart the team
+    - Team proposal
+    - Backlog
+    - Building out our infrastructure as well as working on hot things. Balance between immediate stuff and building for the future
+- Is there something that concerns you? Anything you are scared of? Any issue that keeps you up at night?
+- I'll be eager to grab a lunch or to
