June 24, 2021, Audio: "It’s the first day of orientation at the Conrad New York Downtown, a five-star Hilton hotel in lower Manhattan. All the hallmarks of “Welcome to your new job” are here: coffee and doughnuts at the back, PowerPoint presentation at the front.  The group is a mix of new and returning employees.
