As was I. My own thoughts are that "I" sounds unnatural when you're talking about a non-human entity like a corporation. Somehow, "we" does not. When I say "I launched a product", I feel like it means that I, the person did it. When I say "We launched a product", it means the company did it, even if it's just me. "We" might be more than me (or not me at all!) in the future but I will always be just me.
