I see your idea with the deck I have some questions though.
Why not run clone chip over retrieval run? It's more flexible and you're able to use it midrun. You also have enough influence for it.
Are you aware that xanadu is unique? While it will drive up the rez cost right now you get 1 or at most a 2 credit increase. While it will slow down the corp I'm not sure it will be the money drain you hoped it would be.
Have you thought about e.g. emergency shutdown? With it you could derez the ICE and continue draining money and it would be another way dealing with troublesome ICE.
3x cache in Reina without Aesops pawnshop? Why not just take Easy mark instead? (ok with gimuar and cyberfeeder its +4 but its quite a lot of setup for some cash)
3x Hard at Work - real anarchs don't work
it takes too much time when they're not hacking (1 click turn), too much time to send all those CVs (5 initial cost), and while it does make some ok money (2 per click) there are more efficent ways to make cash
12 influence left (if you remove Cache all 15), there are so many good cards, if you strugggle with cash consider lucy finds, Aesops Workshop, Magnum opus (2MU! but so much better control then working every day), Clone chip to get your parasites back during runs, Personal Workshop for installing parasites during run and some econ, account syphon/legwork since you can get best cards of other factions
3x wyrm - well this card is not too good in general, has its uses, but it costs way too much most of the time; and not having any "normal" Icebreakers is a big problem
[edit remember wyrm has to increase strength, if you want to reduce strength of ice, so its very expensive]
maybe try 1x wyrm, 1x mimic, 1x corroder, 1xYog, and borrow 2x Special Order from criminals (edit too much MU, maybe try wyrm + D4v1d + E3 feedback implants?)
and if you want to be agresive you might consider borrowing Security Testing, at 3 inf its a bit too expensive for most decks, but you have so much free influence here maybe you'll like trying it out
and definitely consider Emergency Shutdown - you dont have many means of dealing with expensive ice
retrival is best with more expensive programs, especially when you run datasuckers corp will want some protection on archives as well
