Comment: I'm not seeing secondary sources? — Red-tailed hawk (nest)22:06, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Unfortunately, this reads more like the company website than a Wikipedia entry. There is too much promotional tone such as its rating, coatrack information on the founder, philanthropy and accolades. This will need to be reduced and please do not use so many references for a single sentence (see ) 08:46, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
