Further:

- headcount from 150k to 186.5k (!)

- EMEA + APAC largely driving slowdown in growth as both regions were -2% (!), USA + Americas are still at +12%

Feel like this might be a pattern this quarter - declining margins + growth as companies over-extended themselves last year not foreseeing just how bad things are outside of the USA + Americas

they keep iterating that foreign exchange is a big part of the non-US decline, but I fail to find how much in the PDF

“Our third quarter revenues were $69.1 billion, up 6% versus last year or up 11% on a constant currency basis.”

Constant currency means excluding impacts of FX.

11% growth (constant currency) vs 41% growth last year is still has huge slowdown in growth.
