Cons

Slow progression, not enough differentiation between good and great, Too much complacency, not enough of an external focus, HR function is not as strong as it should be; too many promotions based upon technical talent instead of leadership ability.

Advice to Senior Management

Aim to make HR world-class, develop leaders earlier, promote for direct leadership ability not technical talent, more opportunities to move top performers more quickly, if not at least have more split job grade roles where you can get promoted as you move from individual contribution to project leadership in a role.
