I haven't done any serious programming in a long time. Is this mostly about corporate process and hierarchies for programming or does this apply to open source projects as well?

Seems really demoralizing putting in the work to add something to an open source project and having it waste away unreviewed and unappreciated.

It's more about scale. Small open source projects might get one PR a month. Your average tech company is dealing with dozens of PR every single day. Review fatigue is real in these environments
