I have a beard, keep it well trimmed. Employer doesn't care. A few months ago I had a crazy untrimmed super-beard and they didn't say a damn thing.

It's jeans and stylish shirts for me. So far no ones ever said anything to me and they're training me on everything they can as fast as they can so I guess it's not hurting me.
Similar scenario - Vans, jeans, and company polo.
I've noticed that as long as you don't let yourself go, you're OK.

Working in IT aka no customer contact and experience in the real world. No wonder you guys are allowed to get away looking like fluffers.
