I found that moving away from a big Corp to a start up really increased what I produced. It varies from company to company but some move much faster than others. I managed to join a complete green field start up and had a great time implementing and delivering results at a much faster rate. This helped create a compounding effect on my career. I also found that once I get to a point where I pretty much had grasp of most things to the point I was "comfortable", was the time to move onto unknown territory and learn something new. This way I keep learning, when I stop is when it gets boring (same day in and out).
