CA renew/remodel the office once a while, but I think they invested money in wrong place. Let me tell you, we do NOT have good product because of having have poor equipment."

"increase salary, improve equipment. Then we will have better products, then you will get more profits. You cut the salary, not willing to improve equipment, spend money on renovations, all these are useless. Then you make less profit, and then lay off people."
