In a large corporation with tons of people constantly reinventing the wheel for no reason only for resume bullet points... where you spend two months on test specs before putting down a single LOC because "TDD", where you have to work with regulators, auditors, etc...

I feel weird defending myself but... yeah. This is actually my experience.

I get that teams at FAANGs/startups can typically move faster but for your run-of-the-mill corporate America development teams people do not move that fast.

Personally, I have only moved that fast at startups which is why I typically find myself at them.

Again, this is anecdotal to my personal experience.
