I agree. How can you fully work as a team if half of your members speak another language? I have seen this in all of my jobs and at Sierra College. Whatever language is the majority is always spoken more than English. I failed a class because everyone was Russian and working in a group with them was difficult. I asked a number of times for them to speak in English, but they didn't.

In a work place, especially one as important as yours, it should be the language that everyone knows fluently.
