This is true for me even though I haven’t lasted more than 3 years for each of my previous 3 employers. Domain knowledge, it seems to me, is the hardest to get up to speed on because you can’t google or SO that sh*t!

Sometimes things are the way they are for a reason, other times it's path dependent, other times it's inertia. Taking notes with your "new eyes" and thinking about how to improve things can help. But don't share until you've had some successes and built some credibility.
