There are very few companies (and sometimes few teams in large companies) who are driven to actually produce something better.

Typically, these companies are startups/midsize pre-ipo companies that are determined to reach somewhere. Until the product(s) are well established, the engineering there is highly regarded - but often loaded with tech debt.

Once the product is well established, it becomes a game of meetings where everyone just looks after their own self.
