Cons
1. There’s more bureaucracy This is the other side of the coin when we discuss ‘well-defined processes’. Large businesses must be organised and have well-documented operations if they’re to be successful. However, this can sometimes be detrimental to its employees. Getting anything done in a large organisation can take more time as you might need three or four people to sign off on a decision before it’s approved. Likewise, simple things like changing your work laptop can initiate a lengthy process of paperwork and inter-departmental back-and-forth. 2. You will have less agency as an employee If you want to showcase all your talents, a large company might not be the best fit. Big businesses have well-defined roles for almost every aspect of the business, and they hire people specifically to fulfil these roles.
