Yeah there's no absolute definition. I believe my experience was the extreme services company where you are not valuable if you are not billable to a customer. Put me off services companies for a long time. Still won't go back.

Mature product companies are more about stained development paces and long term maintainability.

Start up companies regardless of the sector are a different story. Just buckle up for the ride.
