Nobody talks about this, but if you're the only person who does a particular job in a small (usually indie) team it can be incredibly isolating. It's just you alone, responsible for everything, and your colleagues might not understand you, what you do, no mentors, no growth

In smaller teams you have much more ownership, you get to experiment + learn. But in larger teams you get to learn from others, and there are other people who can support you. In solo work, if you screw up, it's your fault and you have to fix it yourself, no help. It's exhausting
