I've noticed quite a few references from the folks in this forum to their experiences in "megacorp", and the general observations that after a number of years working in these places, the job becomes monotonous, tedious, stressful, unrewarding, etc. It seems that some of the experiences you've had at megacorp have led to your desire to retire early.
I'm curious if anyone has noticed a difference in overall perspective of one's ability to enjoy work, feel like it's meaningful, and be less exposed to the bureaucracy and politics of larger corporations if they also spent some time in a smaller company. I haven't worked for a megacorp in over 20 years, and while I had my own reasons for leaving my position in a smaller company, I don't share some of the sentiments that others have shared in their megacorp experience.
Has anyone noticed a general trend in one's overall job satisfaction in smaller companies vs. megacorp's on this site?
