Ok if the job involved a lot of talking with customers, I could see why they saw the stuttering as a problem. At the end of the day, a company has to make things easy for the customer to understand. ...

To be fair these are customer centric roles within the company. But even still, I believe someone with disfluency could absolutely do the job just as well. We are in the medical space and a lot of our...
