Even with the price fixing scandal, TC is still much higher at the big corps than at small companies, isn’t it? Seems like the monopolistic largesse outweighs the competition factor, at least for tech work.
The economics are different in other ways too: a big company hires someone who’s good at CS fundamentals and gives them time to learn whatever stack, while a small one needs someone with experience in exactly the right version of a framework. A big company can hire people for long term R&D while a small one needs features right now.
It may be best for the economy that the spoils of monopoly be redistributed, but we are partly the beneficiaries of them.
