“we expect our headcount to -- we expect to add headcount in the second quarter -- in the second half.”

In context

“ly think about both the large ecosystem partners and the emerging partners together because all of these solutions are really working across the ecosystem. Operator: And our next question today comes from Darrin Peller at Wolfe Research. Darrin Peller: All right. Julie and Angie, can you just touch on your headcount growth expectations? And maybe just higher level, your headcount strategy, has there been any change in linearity that maybe you're seeing, particularly related to AI, but more broadly in the environment right now would be great? Angie Park: Darrin, so for us, headcount, we expect our headcount to increase in the second quarter based upon the demand that we see. And really, this is a continuation of the talent rotation that we discussed at the beginning of the fiscal year, and we expect our headcount to -- we expect to add headcount in the second quarter -- in the second half. Darrin Peller: Okay. And guys, just when we think about linearity and how that's trending given AI and implementation for either your own use cases or customers, I'm just curious if it's impacting the strategy going forward. Julie T. Sweet: By linearity, if you mean the sort of revenue and headcount, I just would remind you that we really have not had a linear relationship since around 2015, when RPA, when automation really came in. And so we would expect to continue to believe that disconnecting, and that's what's baked into our guidance. Darrin Peller: Okay. All right. Just one more quick one is on visibility. Just sitting where we are today versus perhaps this time last year, how do you think about your visibility and confidence in the remainder of this year and even the next 12 months”
