Agree fully...I have found working in corporate America, that it is quite effective at stripping off branching talents or 'non-core' skills of a bright person and making them form a lane of specialization. Essentially stunting their natural curiosity and desire for more knowledge, malforming them into a one trick pony.

Woe is me, I’m a cog in the machine but I want to be the machine itself. I think the technology industry is detached from the rest of the world.

Programmers and mathematicians train to be “the utmost correct” and everyone thinks they figured it out. On this quest for hyper-optimization, hyper-correctness, and so on, EVERYONE has become ridiculous.
