Thanks for being forthright when sharing your experiences. Too often those with your level of industry knowledge and connection do their best to either tap dance around what they know to be an inconvenient truth, or, more frequently, spread deliberate disinformation. I fully understand that one can't bite the hand that feeds; however, as you've exhibited through your writing, in order to remain relevant there needs to be truth in what a source passes off as an experience derived opinion. I learned early on to consider the context whenever factoring in an opinion tendered by someone who has something to gain.
