having worked in large and small orgs, what I can say is, sure, a large org has many more inefficient workflows and latency than a smaller one. However it also has much more drive than the N independent smaller orgs it needs to accomplish the same scope. As a whole, a bunch of 10 person startups is generally more inefficient to accomplish something a big enterprise can do. (and of course, to accomplish what a startup can do, a big org won't be able to do for ages. Formula one vs huge train.) My point being, dont compare a big organization with a small team. Compare a small team within this org with an independant team. The indeêndent team wins, but not by far. With several competing small startup, the thing is, you cannot see the inefficiencies.
