- Teams are siloed, which makes collaboration difficult.
- Organisation feels top-heavy with too many layers of management.
- One of the values is “innovation,” but it doesn’t show up in daily work — many systems, processes and practices are still manual or in need of a refresh.
- Employee engagement is outdated and old-fashioned. This shows up in decisions like mandating two days in the office. Employees are adults and should be trusted to decide where they work best.

- Marketing, branding, and Investor Relations are badly in need of a major uplift to match the quality of the product.
- No learning a development budget for employees
- Benefits are lacking
- They are stuck in BAU
