Discussion on: What are some red flags to look out for in the first few weeks of a new dev job?

I think the tech angle is covered, so let me add some from the business side:

• You're unaware of the product you're working on
• There's no product champion that loves the product
• You don't know who your target market is
• There are strong walls between departments, and your discouraged from working together
• Budget and financial information is entirely secret
• You don't understand the organizational structure
• There is a distinct "us" vs. "them" culture
