I have seen from experience that the command of english is a discriminator in the workplace and in negotiations. You seem to say something in the same direction by saying that it's because you have some good english speaking people around you.
Imagine they would be a vast minority, that most of them would be struggling to make a sentence, and that sentence would be hard to understand (this problem sometimes arise inside a language with local accents and dialects), how would meetings turn?

- nraynaud 13y agoIf the company is american, then what I emphasized doesn't apply at all, it's absolutely normal that most things must be done the american way, and selecting people for their ability to speak with the headquarter makes sense.
