I worked for JW for years. I have nothing but positive things to say about him. Everything I know today stemmed from him, he changed my life and I’m forever grateful. Probably the most impactful person in my professional life.

He’s even better than they say. Lights out. Full Sundays / 80 hr wks, who cares. He’ll take care of you and you’ll learn a ton. Tough love but he is an EXCELLENT PM / mentor / teacher. He’s killing it.

If you’re a junior, I’d highly recommend working for him.

 

You’ll be out of industry in a yr w/ that collectivist mindset so dw ab it
