Business and technology often at odds and can result in mutual manipulation rather than true partnership. When unity does exist between senior leaders, it doesn't often translate effectively to the rest of the company. Feels like some leaders don't trust each other and that distrust is spreading. Many people tell leaders what they want to hear out of fear. Lower performers allowed to stay around longer than they should while higher performers leave, even when the job market isn't good. While there are promotion opportunities, several were created by people leaving the company, not from growth. Spoken values don't match actions.
