What is wrong with my monstera? Three of the leaves have these brown spots. The new leaf has chunks missing and some brown on it. Should I repot it? I just got it one or two weeks ago.

Would it look like this if it was root bound?

The leaf that is unfurling looks like physical damage or possibly a humidity issue. The browning usually indicates a watering issue of some sort.

Thank you! I think I'll repot it and put it in a better draining pot..
