No that is not ironic. That is how things work: if you have vision and you want to do something new and innovative, big corporations such as Apple are not the place to work for. They need just very smart people (hopefully not willing to rock the boat) to execute the existing plan. I'm not saying that all of these companies don't have vision or innovation: the point is that positions requiring vision and initiative are already taken. And if you try something new, you might get in trouble (just imagine somebody at Research in Motion suggesting to build phone similar to iPhone in 2005).
