The bigger the organization the more bureaucratic it becomes. High quality performance coaching and just maintaining internal communication is hard to scale. Big organizations tend to fallback to easy to measure butts in seats and lines of code.

Big organisations will have already learned the hard way about the value of institutional knowledge and how difficult it is to pass that on remotely.
Based on my experiences at companies ranging from 75-5000 employees, I would dispute that. I don't think any type of company is particularly good at passing on institutional knowledge.
