Learn how to be a person in large companies, and learn how to do things in small companies
Thread Content
In the past, companies preferred to hire people with strong skills and extensive experience for research and development, driven by a sense of individual heroism. A competent and capable employee can bring great benefits to the company. However, everything has two sides. In large companies, employees’ work becomes very monotonous. In today’s society, there is rapid turnover of talent. Those who are capable and intelligent have indeed brought many benefits to the company, but they often also cause significant harm to it as well; too many of them leave after working there for a few years. Their departure has created a significant gap in the company, and it will take a long time to fill many of those gaps. In short, it’s severely damaged. This is a common occurrence; these big companies are really good at it. They found that companies should not rely too much on talent; rather, it is right for the talent to rely on the company. The ultimate role of management is to ensure that the company can continue to function properly regardless of who leaves. So, they divide various departments into very small units, with each person being responsible for only one specific task. In this way, with each person specializing in their area of work, efficiency increases, experience is gained, and all tasks become part of standardized processes. Gradually, the company’s operations became more systematic. As a result, the work of employees becomes very monotonous, with little room for creativity. Someone else takes care of things like creativity, reliability, and stability; you just need to have a small manual and do your part according to the rules. In the end, for the company, no one matters anymore. Generally speaking, the larger a company is today, the more specialized the division of labor, and the lower the requirements for talent. It’s actually the small companies that need versatile people, but many people disdain taking on such roles, which is why everyone starts to complain. Therefore, everyone must have a clear career development direction; don’t think that just by joining a large company your future will be bright. Learn how to be a person in large companies, and learn how to get things done in small companies. If one wants to achieve technical expertise, accumulating work experience is only one aspect; to make breakthroughs, one must pursue further study in their free time! Otherwise, the path will become narrower and narrower.
That’s true; in large, well-structured companies, unless you’re at the top of the hierarchy, your scope of interaction is quite limited. However, the pressure is much lower, and the work environment is more stable. As a result, more attention is focused on things other than the work itself, you know what I mean. Small companies provide you with a platform to succeed in chaotic situations; the key is to be willing to work hard. But being willing to work hard is a matter of attitude, while competence is what truly matters. You have to worry about everything, which brings a lot of pressure. The income may not be that great, but it depends on whether you can handle the pressure. If you can, the company will develop well, and then you’ll have enough say – it’s competence that counts. But it is indeed fulfilling, yet sometimes it feels a bit overwhelming. It’s good to perform on such stages when you’re young; going to a big company, you don’t have any real assets, and it takes only a few years before you start trying to get ahead.
Both of them have a point; BECTEL left a deep impression on me. The designers are like workers on an assembly line, and their skill levels don’t have much impact on the quality or progress of the work. But nothing is absolute; in large companies, not to mention the Red Cross itself, one can gain access to a broader world through it, which broadens one’s horizons. There are also more advanced technologies, experience, and different ways of thinking. It can be said that the larger the company, the bigger the stage, but how great one’s achievements will be depends on the individual
Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I believe that if one aspires to pursue a management career, it might be easier to stand out in smaller companies, where management skills can be developed more effectively. On the other hand, if one wants to work in technology, particularly in research and development, larger companies offer a broader platform along with stronger support systems
