My current team is a hulk assembled from a few previously broken teams. Essentially no one is doing the work they were hired for and there is fairly intense resistance from other areas of the business when we try to make change.

Lesson here is to be diligent about finding out why the team you will managing exists and a bit of how it came to be during the interview process.

Thanks for the response, it gave me a grim chuckle.
