How come a small company has more leeway to afford such things like fixing old bugs, than a big one with more money?
No, don't answer. I know already, that small to medium companies are the better work place.
For the same reason a dolphin moves quicker than a blue whale: the company and software size matters, so decisions can go quicker thru the command chain and the code can be easier to manage.
Maybe large companies shouldn't create whale software then.
