1. Combining vacation and sick days into one PTO bucket means people are constantly coming to work sick. You'll catch whatever goes around, guaranteed.
2. Turnover seems pretty high in the software groups.
3. In the software groups you'll hear a lot of Agile methodology buzzwords, but it's really just disorganized waterfall-ish. "Sprints" can span months, for example.
4. Management may be laid-back, but also pretty standoffish by hiding in offices and rarely interacting with the people that report to them, let alone people on teams they don't manage. For example, after well over a year my skip level manager has never spoken to me about anything work-related, not even a "how's it going on your team?"
5. Unusually noisy open office environment. If you need to actually think about what you're doing, good luck.
6. Yeah, we have a parking problem, but putting together a telecommuting policy is too much trouble.
