If they don't use source control and bug tracking, hand in your two weeks notice
If this is your first job then you definitely aren't being paid enough for that… You will live and die by these two tools, because:
1. someone in your department will f**k up, and 2. it will be your job to fix it.
Source control gives you the means to undo a major f**k-up, and bug tracking is the tool you will need to juggle all the f**k-ups that will happen concurrently.The seller of a popular bug tracking system (and the one I use, incidentally) suggests that you should try to inject these into an organization grass-roots style by adopting them yourself, just for yourself, and letting them sell themselves to the rest of the company. But viral marketing isn't your job, and these two tools are so basic that they are signal factors: if the organization doesn't already have them then there's something wrong with the organization.
