A lot of companies are like that. In my previous company people sharing username and password through MS team and I'm sure someone stores them in team folders too.

In the early 90s, at a large financial company I worked for, the system user name/password for a Sybase db was sa/sa. It was so convenient. Of course this was the primordial days but still.

Sybase! Ah, my father has a book about that. Yeah I get back in the days many are ignorant about security.
