Executive management not aligned with C-level management and isn't trusted by the masses. Great story from the top but the execution is counter to the rhetoric as it keeps falling back into "old ways". This company is being run by the sr execs like it is still the 80s or 90s in spite of the C-level's wishes. Management won't invest enough time for change to take effect. They'd rather quickly call something a failure, blame others (blame the new blood), protect their jobs by laying off the newer folks and revert back to the starting point (their old ways) for the next group of new blood to try (fruitlessly) to enable change. New ideas aren't truly welcome/ wanted to succeed.
Meanwhile, the old guard stays in place and gets financially fat off a once great company, giving lip service all the way to the bank. The seniors are riding this company into the ground and the c-team is apparently ignorant.
Customers/Partners see thru this continuous reset tho. The company maintains an "all about me" reputation in the industry and is not trusted by others. It's still seen as a company not to partner with and a place where good products go to die.
