This is a highly overlooked point. In these massive developer organizations, you're able to focus more and more on the core of your profession and have to deal less and less with catchall technical tasks. The scope of work is very different and you can't expect the skillsets working in a startup to be applicable to those in tech giants and vice versa. Tech has an issue where only a handful of titles try to cover a massive diversity of actual skillsets. I'm not entirely sure if this is good or bad but it at least leads to significant confusion when assessing someone's abilities. Not all SEs are the same in terms of their focuses, there are lots of flavors in reality.
