If you have been to 1500 in Houston on the 11th floor they have a interactive projector, a barista and much more. How can we afford that when so much of the company is working with a bare bones budget and so many contractors have been laid off? It also goes with how can we afford MW and MN's excessive salaries if we are in such dire straights.

The barista knows who belongs on the floor? Not too sure about that. I don’t belong on the 11th floor, but when I walk into the coffee lounge wearing my black top hat and cape with red silk underlining, I get the Royal treatment.
The cost is not the concern, it's the optics. A barista is over the top IMO
That's all BS. No reason they should be getting a barista or catered food. Are they that much more important than other people keeping jobs? So many contractors have lost jobs and so many departments barely have a budget to operate. Let's cut the fat before we cut jobs. Luxury boxes for executives should be gone.
The barista knows who belongs on the floor. If you try to order from her and you don’t belong she’ll challenge if you should really be there.
Food is catered at the barista bar a few days a week.
Its absolutely true. They really do have a barista there and when you walk off the elevator there is a interactive floor that looks like a river. They even have a Soda Stream there.
This is bullsh-t. I happen to be on the 11th floor in 1500 today and didn’t see any of that. Look like the standard musty smelled floor that it’s always been.
This feels like a trap.. is there really a barista..? Can anyone confirm?
At least I get free apples…
It makes CNE feel like something other than a filthy old economy oil company.
It is to attract and retain CNE employees.
