Job or startup? This might be a very common question arising in your mind when you complete your graduation and want to start your career. Thinking from every aspect, 4 out of 5 times you will come with a solution to choose a corporate job over startup, but there are some factors which give you a reason to think over your decision again and then make the right choice. Though corporate jobs give you a safe and secure career option most of the time, but there is a whole lot of thing which could be gained by joining a startup besides safety and security. For safety and security can be achieved only through your work.
Here are some reasons which will help you to make the right choice when you get stuck between a job and a startup:
Exposure
Startup job comes with a great offer that it provides more exposure to you and your work than a corporate job. You’ll have more opportunities in your hand when you work for a startup company. This is because when less number of people is involved in some work then more opportunities are given to every individual working for it. Opportunities help you grow faster, no matter you succeed in it or not. Your success gives you encouragement to work more and your failure gives you the experience to work better.
Responsibilities
When opportunities strike your door, you become more alert to work better for it. And when you are working for a big company, you’ll face various people equally talented as you are and to prove yourself among a bunch of brainy people is a really tough job to do. Your responsibilities increase to prove yourself and you work at a double frequency. While working for a startup, though you need to strive hard to survive in the market but you are bound to a bunch of responsibilities and nothing more than that. And responsibilities make you deal with tough situations easily. So working with loads of responsibilities could sometimes be beneficial for yourself.
You’ll be the reason for the changes
Every action has a reaction and this applies to your work as well. Your work will affect your company for sure, be it good or bad. Your company will rise when you achieve something even if it’s your smallest achievement. You’ll be happy to contribute to the success of your company. On the other hand, if you make any mistake your company will have to suffer along with you. Because of this, you work more carefully and more accurately.
Working on Scales
One more advantage of working for a corporate job is to get to work on a large scale at the very beginning of your career. Be the company small or big but the difference of working scales between a corporate job and a startup job is always visible. Working at a corporate job teaches you about how to work on large scale and with that you get to work under some expert’s guidance which turns beneficial for you. While working for a startup company, you have to start everything from scratch and you need to establish everything by yourself without any guidance and without any support. Since it’s good to work everything by yourself but what’s bad when you get an expert guidance and support? Then chances of getting failed in your work reduce by half so why not go for this option?
