I abhor these setups. Luckly every time I've been in them it's been realtively easy to get an exception.

I can't think of many situations I'd stay at a company like this unless it was very easy to get necessary software added within 3-5 business days.

In my experience, the IT friction is usually higher the larger the company. Since plenty of people work at large companies, restrictive IT departments is a frequent concern.
