I've worked at plenty of big name companies you've heard of, and I have not experienced what you describe. Oracle, for example, was pretty much about showing up at work every day.
Personally I think they churn out 'better' engineers simply because you are afforded more opportunities to work on things that can be of enormous scale, specificity, and complexity.
