Analyst narrative

Thinking

I need to analyze Medallia and build a detailed workforce analysis report. Let me start by gathering information about the company.

First, I'll search for basic information about Medallia - what they do, how many employees they have, their structure, etc. I'll need to gather context efficiently and then build out the organizational hierarchy with ONET codes.

Let me start with broad searches to understand:

  1. Company size/headcount
  2. Business model
  3. Organizational structure
  4. Key departments/functions
  5. Location information

I'll make parallel searches to gather this information quickly, then use the think tool to reflect before proceeding.

I'll analyze Medallia's workforce structure and build a comprehensive automation impact report. Let me start by gathering information about the company.
