Lack of leadership

Pros

Fast paced and acquisitive environment

Cons

Certain senior leaders more concerned about how they look than doing the right thing. Only manage upwards and go into a panic any time they are asked a difficult question - and then they kick the team to get an answer (usually in the form of a project) when a confident answer would have done the trick.
