How to choose the first company after graduation, I believe this is the doubt of many students. After entering a big company, is it a radish and a pit, and can only be a screw? When you enter a small company, you can make a big difference to realize your life ideals?

Let's assume first, what will you face when you enter a large mature company?

• Aura Blessing:

Generally, mature large companies refer to famous companies that we are familiar with, or Top 3 companies in a certain field. If you choose such a company for the first job, the most direct benefit that can bring us is to add points to your resume. Many company bosses have the plot of famous enterprises and famous schools. If you have the opportunity to enter a well-known company, it is definitely a huge advantage for you to change jobs in the future.

• Jobs' Law:

I used to think that one great person can top two mediocre employees, and now I think it can top 50. --Jobs

Whether it is internal training or external recruitment, large companies are more attractive to outstanding personnel. In the workplace, you will be able to work with more excellent colleagues and learn more from them. However, it also faces greater competitive pressure.

• Company stability:

I have a friend named Ivy, who used to be the sales director of a star-rated hotel. Later, he left to join a start-up company as the vice president of the company. Although the title and salary have both improved, he still chose to return to the hotel industry. "You never know if you'll be paid tomorrow," he said.

Most large companies have stable funding sources, and generally their core businesses have good financial performance. Therefore, the benefits and remuneration of employees in large companies are relatively stable. At least the wages are paid on time.

• The process is cumbersome:

Large companies also have cumbersome company processes because of their large size and sound systems. These "big company diseases" are not so efficient due to the layered approval system, and cross-departmental communication is even more cumbersome and difficult. , often a decision has been opened for several days and there is no result.

• Promotion narrow:

The stability of the company also includes the stability of personnel. Because not all employees are determined to become industry leaders, there are few changes in some departments of large companies, and jobs are often full of carrots and pits. If you want to be promoted, you need to have new ones. Pit out.

• Office Politics:

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, whether it is a large company or a small company. It's just that many small companies can't live without office politics.

Of course, entering a small company is not without merit, and Alibaba also grew up from a small company. It has only been three years since Pinduoduo went online in 2015 to its listing in the United States.

• Big room for development:

Many people say that you can only be a screw in a big company, because the system is perfect, and you can quickly find new replacement candidates if you lack this position. And the hierarchy is differentiated, and it is often difficult for fresh graduates to play a backbone role in the team. In a small company, there are fewer people in the initial stage. If your work performance is good enough, you can quickly enter the core of the team. With the development of the business and the expansion of the team, you will soon be able to play a leading role.

• Get in touch with more jobs:

In a small company, you tend to have multiple roles than in a large company. Maybe you are both a business person and a back-office job. Although the work you do is more complicated, you have the opportunity to contact more types of work. It can also help you determine your future career direction.

• All on your own:

Different from the cumbersome process of large companies, small companies have convenient communication, but also because they do not have standardized system responsibilities.

• Uncertain future:

Maybe the company can still achieve revenue today, but tomorrow it will be eliminated by competitors because the competitiveness of its core business is not enough; maybe it is walking to the company to go to work today, and the company will be relocated at this time next month. Especially for some companies that have just launched their business, the future they face is unknown, and you, as one of them, are also uncertain.

In fact, whether you choose a large company or a small company, the most important thing is to see whether it can meet your life needs.

If you are happy at work, the income can meet your requirements. In a big company or a small company it doesn't matter that much.

Companies such as Nokia and Kodak have their days in decline; small companies also have their days to fly up the branches and become phoenixes.

Choosing a high-quality company with potential is the best way.
