Terminology, acronyms, and culture always seem to get experienced hires. Right or wrong, we do things in ways that are naturally different from other companies and they can drive people nuts. We're also not nimble. You don't have authority to make decisions easily at any level. Lastly, expenses are tracked at almost a silly level. Taking a client to dinner you better have receipts and reasons.
