Jesus living through that now. Physics PhDs and postdocs turned coders all around. They dislike anything "not made here" and can build tools for years before a prototype solution to the actual problem exists. System design decisions are made frivolously and end user feedback is actively discouraged, "have to be careful who we show this to" one said in a meeting after something got criticized by an end user representative. I'm venting a bit but it is a culture clash for sure.
