I work at a place where data quality is not on anyone’s radar. We have a reporting team in our group so we do our best where we can, but combining any datasets with other groups (like marketing & sales) is next to impossible as each team is silo’d and do things their own way - think free-form text fields to tag content…

How can I politely and succinctly say the above? Also, anyone else in a similar boat?

    Good luck. The company I work at has the exact same problem. Since each system tends to be owned by a different org, and the systems all meet the owning org’s needs, you’re going to be in for struggle.
