Workaround(s)
It would sure be nice if you guys could add a StartupType NoteProperty to the output of Get-Service. I have to resort to the StartMode property from the gwmi Win32_Service command. That seems a bit obtuse and certainly asymmetrical since Set-Service allows you to set the startup type via its StartupType parameter.

As some have said, StartupType and StartName are two of the most importants properties of a service to view, neither of which Get-Service displays.

How often does this happen?
Always Happens
Have you seen this problem before in this product?
Yes, this happens in all previous versions
Reproduction Steps
User uses Set-Service -StartupType to set a service's startup type. They then expecte that Get-Service will show them this information. Having to rely on GWMI Win32_Service is stretching it.
Expected Results
I expect Get-Service to display StartupType and probably even StartName.
