> In my opinion, the larger the company and the higher the hierarchy, the harder it is to innovate and experiment with something different for that next project.

In my experience this just simply isn't true. Both large and small companies can put up reasons why you can't innovate or experiment.

For small companies there is always a deadline or budget that gets in the way.

The size of a company has no real bearing on what they allow their employees to do.

The only difference I've seen is with well run and poorly run companies.

In my experience these are evenly distributed between big and small companies.

Or put another way, your manager will determine 90% of your happiness at your job.
