I'll only make one point (out of the many) regarding my own experience from having worked at both large corp and startups:
- Big Tech Companies have way more money to fund new projects. If they do back a project up, they give it proper resources. Big companies are however more stringent about which projects they back, and the risk has to be as minimum as can be. Business sense most often trumps vision.
- Startups are very free-form. There might not be money floating around but organic (as in self-thought-out, grown, and nurtured) projects are encouraged and rewarded.
