One problem with a smaller shop is a limited budget. This is because to 'properly' equip a computer room with air conditioning, uninterruptable power supply, security on the doors, etc. etc., you're going to take a higher percentage of the company's funds than with a large company.

Another is the 'attitude trap--' it's too easy to slide into the "It's just a one-line change" mode of fixes-- and fixing the live environment without testing things. This is an easy slide because it's just you and a few others. Setting up a complete test environment takes time and resources (money, disk space, etc. etc.), and you may find the money to pay for these 'frills' hard to come by.
