High pay, free food, beautiful building, great location, and smart people.
Ancient architecture, no coding standards, no commenting of code, no documentation. Poorly designed and documented, buggy, incomplete GUI framework which you are forced to use. Weird UI standards, little inter-group code sharing, poor common tools.
Work more on setting up coding standards. Force people to document their work better. Rewrite some ancient bits, or otherwise create a modern wrapper around them. Create a common toolset and develop it. Hire 5x more people onto the GTK team so that the GUI framework everyone has to use won't be so horrible.
