Big orgs tend to rely on economies-of-scale and not nimbleness: they study the process and "regiment-ize" it to make it efficient by partitioning and standardizing labor, tasks, and parts so each part can focus on and perfect their particular corner of the world. Lack of nimble-ness is not necessarily the same as being less efficient. However, regimentation can become less efficient if it gets in the way of change, and big orgs are known to be slow to change.
