-Strong cultural attachment to the "good old days" and legacy processes.
-Culture of blame rather than accountability, especially as you climb the ladder.
-Job descriptions rarely align with actual responsibilities. Employee duties and experiences at the same level vary substantially across teams.
-Silo mentality and one-way communication make collaboration difficult and duplication inevitable. Recent growth has only exacerbated this problem (see Moody's explanation of its 2018 downgrade to EAB's outlook).
-Strong in-group/out-group dynamics. Favoritism is an open secret.
-Abysmal knowledge and project management.
-Poor track record of recruiting, retaining, and growing diverse talent.
-Barebones investment in L&D.
