Engineers always over value their ability to start companies on their own. There is a lot to building a successful company and needs irrationality and risk-taking (not exactly traits of a median engineer). Engineers like Musk, Zuck, Gates are outliers than the norm. If you are a Boeing Engineer and had above average risk-appetite, you wouldn't be stuck in Boeing for 10+ years.
