Many enterprise products have bad design because they need to serve so many complex workflows, not because their design teams completely suck. It's just a hard problem (eg look at Salesforce and tell me how you'd design it well...) Consumer products are like Chipotle: streamlined menu, built for efficiency and elegance. Enterprise products are like the Cheesecake Factory: you want a steak, pasta, pancakes, and a margarita? Go for it! Why is there a full f*ing bar in the back? Who knows! It's hard to have great design when you have to do so much.
