      -Strives to maintain a mediocre culture -Pays below the market -Friendships are highly important and overshadow business needs -Follower mindset, rewarded to not ask questions and just do tasks, and reprimanded for questioning decisions that don't make sense -Leaders awarded teams without experience and are given a lot of grace and time to figure things out -Lacking communication, strategy, planning and support -Micromanagement with little autonomy -Hard to move upward unless close friendships are developed within the alliance -Outdated reporting and tracking systems, left up to managers to manually manipulate info and explanations
