This is where we discuss changes coming down the pipeline or the wins in the last couple of weeks. I love this, because I feel we're always informed about what's going on. We also share shout-outs in these meetings. This is where certain individuals are recognized by their own peers for a job well done on something. You never know who's going to recognize you. It could be management or your own peers. This is so different than where I used to work. I don't remember having any of this at any of the places I worked before. I love it here!"
