for me as am experienced senior-engineer these are not "red flags" but challenges:
lets introduce modern ways of solving problems & automating processes, if they are feasible and meaningful ... (eg. sadly even container are not the proper tool for every use-case ... ;))
but a red flag would be for example, if those things are "carved in stone", eg.:
1. "if you work for us, you are not allowed to introduce modern methods", because $EXCUSE
2. we have to cling on to our inefficient/manual way of doing things, because $COLLEAGUE doesn't want to change his_hers habits originating from the mid to late 1990ties
3. etc...
been there, tried to change things despite such signs of resistance against change - didn't work out ... in every single case ;))

- theideaofcoffee 3y agoSame experience here, to a T. Equivocation, excuses, fear for their ancient jobs, I've seen it all, got the t-shirt and am recovering from the PTSD. I've been fired with pride from places like this for butting heads against similar thinking (and of course, failing) and moved on to much greener pastures.
