It seems like even among startups and small businesses that are reasonably well-run (meaning decent process, and developers aren't overworked because of management failure), it's very hard to compete with the benefits and compensation that a larger company can offer. And is it really news that many companies are poorly run by clueless douchebags with MBAs? Surely this is just as true at larger companies as it is with startups. Larger companies are just better at covering it up.
