I'd bet that they did not let the cement cure. You can't just fill up the forms and say, "That's it." It takes many, many pours, in stages and phases to get the cement to cure properly.

Gonna take more than Band-Aid's and super-glue to fix that!

Looks like a do-over, as in do it over from the beginning.
