Not really. Look up assumption and then question. Hell even you with an opinion on everything knows that an assumption is not the same as a question.

You answered the question in, what I believe is a biased manner, which could be expected. The fact that you work there is of relevance but it in no way makes you an authority.

Some know way less than you and some know way more than you about the operations within the company.
