Kona: absolutly agree with your 'healthy' list - even having an accessible water cooler or 3 is a nice perk.
Otherwise, healthy: Being made to feel important. If you show up on your first day, fill out your paperwork, are show your desk, and are abandoned, that's not cool. Even if you're a freelancer, getting a tour of your area (so you can find the kitchen, and a microwave), and being introduced to your co-workers and bosses and being included is awesome.
Unhealthy: Deadlines, pitches, and meetings are a fact of life... but I hate when you're strung along for a week while decisions are made, then have to pull an all-nighter or two before a meeting because stuff couldn't be decided on, or people decided to come in late, take long lunches, or leave early at random because 'stuff isn't due yet.'
