Adding some more: -Web policies that actively prevent you from doing research in key company technologies (edit: fake example, but effectively it was on the level of a gun maker blocking searches on firearms) -No budget for replacing/upgrading outdated computers that get absolutely crushed by memory hogging corporate nannyware. It's amazing how little you get done when it takes five minutes to open Excel -Computers not arriving until well after the start date of new hires -Outdated database access prograns that won't run on x64 systems (or better yet, are still run on terminals and the only viable means of export was printing...and yes I ran into that only a couple years ago in a Fortune 100) I get a lot of this is outside the hands of IT to actually fix, but they're still "IT Problems" even if the root cause is shitty management
