Too much "we've always done it this way". It's not great, but its not horrible.
Pros: They treat the employees well and go above and beyond in communicating information you need to know. (I.E. When the CEO was fired and during Covid).
Cons: There is a lot of legacy processes and procedures (AND MENTALITY). Things are introduced as new/innovative to solve a problem, but if a department doesn't want to change their ancient way of doing something, they can opt out forcing everyone around them to be inefficient as they work around unbelievable stubbornness.

It makes the innovation screech to a stop and it demotivates the good employees.

There are a lot of weak managers that just get shuffled around vs. managed out. Employees who don't perform are allowed to remain and the solution is just hiring another person to the team. This is consistent throughout the entire organization.
