I maintain my brother's PC (and his laptops, which he uses for work - he's a DJ), and sort out minor problems by phone.

That sounds all too familiar! Three cheers for the manglement!

Is corporate culture like this everywhere?

Pretty much! I'll refrain from having a rant about 'agile', except to call it bollocks! Glad I'm retired.
