I might be canned for this here, but, I see that enterprises have a lot more work of the fundamentals, simpler sort than startups. At startups, I worked with 100s of libraries not understanding, or not having the time to even look back at things we did. At enterprises, there are a lot of low hanging fruit, which when applied magic CS pixie dust, becomes more performant (to a lot of people). This is one of the reasons why I moved away from product side programming to IT. My brain screams in pain, when I do lot of context switches, and I figured this is not going to make me a better programmer. The fun stuff is in handling data, not learning layers of apis(for me). Now working in enterprise is not for everyone - the politics etc, but for me, it still beats the pain of working in a smelly, loud, fast context-switching, agile-kanban startup.
