1. Many long-term senior leaders seem to come from the "if it isn't broken, why fix it?" mentality. This is not a way to outpace the competition in a highly competitive (and commoditized) field. The organization would benefit from truly innovative thinking, disruptors, and strong leadership at all levels.
2. Limited career growth in some areas of the organization.
3. Corporate politics can feel like managing overblown egos even though the company likes to say it is ego free.
4. Less than competitive benefits and mediocre pay.
5. Despite the focus on OneIA, many offices and/or practice groups aren't embracing this - seems territorial and counter productive.
6. Little to no investment in outside training across the organization.
7. Two MD models confuses staff and slows things down because the two leaders are not aligned. Decisions are endlessly debated. Mixed messages sent. Good cop/bad cop atmosphere.
