I worked at a place where IT had an admin user on every machine named "Backdoor". I opened a ticket when I noticed it, which was promptly closed explaining that it was normal.
The same place had a boot script on every computer that wrote to a network-mounted file. Everyone had read permissions to it (and probably write, but I didn't test) and the file contained user names, machine names, and date-times of every login after boot for everyone on the domain going back 5 years. I opened a ticket for that, which was never addressed.
