I've went from a 15 men team in big corp where we managed the search feature of an important ecommerce (both the search inputs and filters and result displaying): meeting, meetings, daily, all hands, ceremonies, meetings, committees, pings, train juniors here, train juniors there, help people with whatever is their issue, explain to the designer everything that's wrong or missing with their airbnb-cloned design (like missing all states for hover, disabled, etc). Now I work in a 3-men company where the CEO is mostly absent and it's me and another developer, that's it. We manage 5 different products. A single team in big corp would've not been able to handle even one of those I'm 100 % sure of it. I grew to appreciate more small teams made of quality strongly independent people, productivity is infinitely higher than big teams in big corps, those are doomed to be slow and inefficient. The only con in the current arrangement is that company is obviously very vulnerable to losing me or even my other colleague which is way more proficient and expert than me on many aspects. Our CEO understands that and his priority is to make us happy financially and by allowing us to work how we prefer, at the time we prefer. Best deal I've ever had in my life. I work much more than I did, but I like it, it's still less than 8 hours per day, but it's not meetings/youtube/chats/some coding.
