A number of things at play on large organizations.

- They think in terms of projects not products.

- The structure of the organization ifself. Doesn't lend it self to small teams.

- A lot of dependencies. A lot of bottlenecks. You have to wait in line to get any of the resources that you need.

- A lot of people offering their opinions.

- Office politics.

- Ratio between employees that can use office (e.g.power point, excel, email) vs employees that can do real work. (devs, ops, testing ). Lots of chiefs, very few Indians.

- No one owns anything. Responsibilities are diluted.

- Teams lack autonomy.

And lots of business people who have nothing to do but make meetings. Meetings get boring when they are only meeting with themselves, since they have nothing to talk about but there other meetings.
