This is the terrible norm in the semiconductor industry. VNCs everywhere. Almost all EDA GUIs are only designed for Red Hat or CentOS so IT makes everyone connect to a datacenter and start an X server. Having interviewed at/worked at these companies, I know that Intel, NVIDIA, and Apple all do this. It sucks. Your productivity plummets because each keystroke lags and it makes you lose your train of thought. When there's an outage, no one can do any work at all.
