This is something I struggle with. I'm a perfectionist in my work- I'm the person who, without being told, periodically walks through our products flow and scrutinizes every detail. I make note of every little performance hitch, everything that looked a bit off on one device or browser, everything that would've annoyed me just a tiny bit as a user, and I go through and fix each and every one of them. Just because I want it to be good.
But I feel like larger companies systematically resist this kind of care. Through removal of agency (approval processes, splitting stakeholders across teams, top-down assignment) and through sprawling product complexity that leaves people no time to give attention to all the details because there are simply too many.
I think I just can't ever work at a large company. I care too much.
