Do you know if the code bases are of the kind where dynamic memory (among many other features) is disallowed?

Some of them, probably.

From the job postings, many of them seem to be physics simulations of various kinds where (in my experience) memory is allocated on the heap without a second thought. Well, there are second thoughts, but those second thoughts are about performance.
