Would you say you have a specialization or are you more of a generalist?

Bigger orgs often tend to want specialists while early stage cos love generalists who can do a bit of everything.

Also, scale invites challenges that someone in companies of < 20 will not have encountered.

Hard to know without more specifics but sometimes comes down to the “different wars need different generals” mantra.
