You toldbefore that Amity Group, with its decades of history, has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it's a nationally recognized enterprise with a solid reputation and foundation.
"The disadvantage is that over these decades, the motivation of many employees has been ground down to almost nothing-especially certain relatives and friends of a few shareholders. You're well aware of their lack of contribution to the company, but you can't completely remove them.
