They say that they work on scrum - 30+ people on daily, no one listens to each other, people can't normally express their status, their problems either on daily or in retrospect. There are no clear-cut processes, everything is spontaneous, chaotic, only when the customer requests and everyone quickly begins to panic and look for what to answer to the customer, who is to blame that there is no answer to the question. There is no transparency in relations with the customer and within the team. The proposal of improvements (prescribing rules and processes, defining areas of responsibility on the project, implementing management tools, implementing long-term planning to increase transparency and trust in relations with the customer) is verbally welcomed, but in fact ignored, called "bureaucracy, formalization" with all the negative meanings of these words. The project management allows itself to speak rudely to a team member, criticize him without specifying specific reasons, disrupt their negative emotions of a person in front of the whole team, and then apologize one-on-one for what happened. Also, the project management allows itself to rudely and abruptly shut up a team member, justifying this by "saving time", and then in a one-on-one conversation asking for the opinion of this person, who was not allowed to say. There is no onboarding process for the project - a beginner should distract everyone in the team from work, ask for access, links, training. The project management allows the formation of coalitions in the team, mobbing, and restriction of access to information necessary for the work of specific team members. Some members of the project team may have privileges to skip meetings, even where their participation is critical. Even the project manager is distracted from work on a daily basis during working hours by his family affairs, is not available at the time of making critical decisions on the project. A very vague framework of responsibility - who is responsible for what is not spelled out anywhere, everything is passed from mouth to mouth with distortions. People overwork - more than 8 hours a day, even on weekends, and this is greatly encouraged by the project management.

The company often have a money issue, usually it's solve it by layoffs.
