* Lack of diversity
* toxic environment created by some department leaders such as visualization,
* no proper room for progress unless one is versed in politics and builds your team of allies
* regular individual assessments with improper mediation infused with biased and non-logical argumentations by the lead evaluating their staff: usage of personal judgments, strawman fallacies, inaccurate accusations with no proof.
* favoritism towards certain staff to the detriment of others
* poor collaboration within the department and between departments.
* turnover among lower staff is high for lack of support and due to their devaluation by more senior staff.
