I am someone who moved from a smaller guild to a much bigger guild. My first big guild was very competitive and my current big guild is more casual. The competitive guild did not allow cheese in phase 3, that was the only difference between the two and I can score in the top 10 of both no problems. The raid dies so fast there is no need to wait for anything. (I am assuming people are actually big enough to join a big guild 3.5 mil GP and up, at this size, does it matter what phase you hit? Your roster should be good for all phases?)
As for growing with a guild together and developing friendships, that's more on a guild's leadership than anything CG can do to make things easier for a guild to retain members. If leadership allows folks to miss events and/or do minimal participation. The more aggressive members will feel they are being held back and will start to think about joining a group with more similar goals to their own.
