It's a really, really toxic work environment with inter-departmental infighting, and fighting between departments.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leading...actual leading, as opposed to pretending to "manage"

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

It takes a REALLY long time between interviewing and being hired...

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

My team is terrific, our manager does everything he can to undermine the teams effectiveness.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Our departmental manager is incredibly toxic. He plays favorites - to the extreme - and stops work from being accomplished for personal-political reasons.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Toxic leadership needs to go - promotions need to be based on actual contribution and not whether or not you're friends with/sleeping with your boss's boss.
