- money driven small business (quantity > quality)
- very short deadlines resulting in nervous atmosphere in the office
- missing, or very limited personal development plan
- lack of long-term well defined visible strategic goals
- open space office (a.k.a. obligatory participation in all the phone calls)
- lack of essential expertise at the management level (technical and interpersonal)
- no flexibility of working hours (typical 9-5 job), next to impossible working from home time
