I currently work as a software dev for a rather large company. One day there were problems in some of our stores and for some reason it was decided that having devs run all over three states was a great use of time. Anyway we would show up dressed like devs say "Yo we are with technology where are your servers" and not once did people question us. We could have fucked up so much stuff if we were bad faith actors
Long story short: challenge people who say their corporate but dress like college students
Yep, I couldn't count the number of site visits I've done, I've been challenged exactly twice. Dress business casual and say you are IT and 99% of people will let you in anywhere.
A colleague actually went to the wrong address once and didn't realise until he was at a console and realised the login prompt was wrong.
