Any large organisation will tend to run into exactly the same issues that the socialist centrally planned economies did. Centrally planning an economy simply can’t work and the inefficiency gets worse with scale. They have the politburo (the executive team), and apparatchiks (middle management). Large organisations are just a smaller version of a centrally planned economy. Market forces have very limited opportunity to influence the micro-level internal resource allocation decisions of a large organisation. There’s some things you can to do mitigate this within an organisation, but having efficiency decrease with organisational complexity and scale is inevitable. There’s only two reasons I can see that this doesn’t devolve into soviet style catastrophe. Firstly, some of the lost efficiency is offset by the economies of scale. Secondly, if an organisation becomes too inefficient, their market position can (usually) be usurped by competition. Shareholders can also fire insufficiently competent management, but usually not before the damage is done, and they can’t exactly guarantee the replacements will be any better.
