The culture supports “go-getters,” people who can “figure it out,” take “initiative” and be “autonomous.” This leads to silos and a general lack of connection in the organization.

genera compartimientos aislados
silo noun [C] (PART)
- a part of a company, organization, or system that does not communicate with, understand, or work well with other parts:
We found that a lot of people work in silos - they don't see the connections between what they do and how another part of the airline operates.

En la mayoría de los centros de investigación en complejidad en el mundo, es posible encontrar científicos que provienen de numerosas disciplinas y a su vez trabajan en proyectos correspondientes a distintas áreas; por ejemplo, se da el caso que hay físicos, biólogos, politólogos, analistas de sistemas, etc., estudiando quizás un problema económico. Esto es difícil de conseguir en muchos países latinoamericanos donde las distintas disciplinas funcionan usualmente como
***compartimentos aislados*** y hay poca comunicación entre investigadores de distintas facultades y poco interés en lo que se hace en otros ámbitos.

al aislamiento de áreas o departamentos
I fully agree with the explanation for silos above. I have worked in large corporations and suffered the silos working, i.e.: areas or departments of a company that work on their own without any connection or coordination with the rest of the company. I would use "áreas" or "departamentos", as the silos concept refers to parts of a company, (as perfectly explained in the answer above). In Spanish I have used and seen being used commonly the words: "áreas" or "departamentos" to refer to parts of a company.
