Passive-aggressive: "Everyone agrees, but nothing changes."
Fits-and-starts: "Let 1,000 flowers bloom."
Outgrown: "The good old days meet a brave new world."
Overmanaged: "We're from corporate, and we're here to help."

Or is it Healthy?
Just-in-time: "Succeeding by the skin of our teeth."
Military precision: "Flying in formation."
Resilient: "As good as it gets."
