Difference between working on large vs. small IB Transactions?

Anyone have insight into how an IB Analysts's role differs when working on large ($1B+) vs. small deals (1-200mm)?

Guessing that a lot of differences may actually result from the type of firm that covers these deals (working at a BB vs. working at a boutique) as opposed to the work itself.

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
