Yep, the use of deprecated/inferior tools is a telltale sign that a company does decisions (or is unable to make decisions) because of legacy/politics/ignorance/other bad reason.

My alarm bells ring every time I hear a company using CVS or Perforce or something even worse.

Sometimes you just gotta suck it up, though. I have to use Perforce and Google Repo at work and it not only sucks, but is making me lose valuable coding time daily when I have to use an inferior tool to what's available out there.
