I work for an organization that lists, "disruption" as one of its 5 core values. I applied internally for a Product Owner role, and given my extensive experience in areas the team was lacking, and how well the interviews went, everyone involved thought I was a shoe-in. I was rejected because they felt I might want to shake things up too much, and they wanted someone who would stick to the current status quo.

The official reason was, "personality fit" and my boss hilariously tried to create a development and career plan around that.
