I'd go so far as to say no. It is not just "some" poorly-run larger companies. In my experience, i'd go so far as to say its all of them. To draw an analogy in biological terms, its a direct consequence of: a) company/organism complexity and size b) successfully being able to draw in sufficient nutrients (operating revenue and profit) while experiencing a lack of existentially threatening evolutionary competition in that particular ecosystem. It allows such things to naturally develop. I haven't even thought about it until now, but perhaps one substantial part of the rise of bullshit jobs is the increased size and dominance of the large company as a proportion of the economy :\
