Tech companies in the bay area would probably wonder WTF you got arrested for marijuana or other minor drug offenses.

DUI I think would be a more serious issue, depending on the area. In the Bay Area, DUIs are pretty frowned upon, since there are other transportation options. I think they're much more accepted in rural areas.

I know plenty of tech people who have convictions for assault (bar fights), drugs, computer crime (particularly as kids), etc.
