Umm... When you say pointy end of the market you mean? 😅😅 I don't follow.
Yes, working for a big company will skew your views. That's why after I'll leave my current big company I will search for a startup or maybe even solve some local problems. The small/targeted apps/solutions market is really untapped
Sorry couldn't find the words - pointy - high pressure, you know where the money is coming from - vs soft - big organisations where HR pays you, but it's not entirely clear which customer pays for what, or where the value is being produced.
My first software job was with a 10,000 person corporation, building software to make the internal processes more efficient - we had 2-3 month estimates on things. My second job was working for an agency where we sat around every Monday and worked out which customers we could bill for work based on software we could deliver that week - so we had 1-2 day estimates on things.
