• Cultural equity doesn’t feel consistent for teams in Mexico (less voice/visibility in decisions).
• Team leadership (in my org) lacked openness to feedback and changed direction frequently.
• Mixed messages on pace vs. urgency (planned “relaxed” sprints turning into rush deadlines).
• Micromanagement tendencies despite stated support.
• Decisions defended even against clear data, causing rework and friction.
• Impact of a junior manager without sufficient managerial maturity.
