While some people enjoy the relative comfort, stability, and prestige of working at a large company, I prefer
to live life on the edge. Given the choice, I would much prefer to work at small company where I could have more
responsibility, more excitement, closer relationships with my coworkers, and a greater sense of accomplishment
than I could have at a big company.
If I worked at a large company, my role at the company would be highly specialized and narrowly defined. At
a smaller company everyone has to take on extra responsibilities to make the business work. For instance, if I
worked at a small computer software company as a programmer, I might not only program, but also have to make
trips to potential clients for sales. At a large company, the sales department would talk to clients, and I would be
stuck in the same boring routine every day with less responsibility. I might less in touch with what the clients
wanted if my responsibilities were limited to programming.
I crave excitement, so the idea of working for a small company particularly suits me. While working at a
large company can offer more job security, workers don't usually get any of the annual profits. But if you work for
a small company, profits are more likely to be shared at the end of the year. This means that the harder you work,
the more potential there is to make a large amount of money. It is also especially gratifying when you can see how
your hard work helped to build or save the company, a feeling of accomplishment that is difficult to attain when
working in a large company.
Finally, working together in a small company creates a sense of special closeness between colleagues. You
have to both trust and depend on each other for everything. This closeness is not only between people within the
company but can also extend to your clients and suppliers, all of whom you can get to know on a first name basis.
Business deals become less impersonal and more pleasurable when you work with people you trust and like. This
trust is both deeper and easier to build when you work for a smaller company.
