THE 5 TOP REASONS TO CHOOSE A SMALL WORKPLACE

-

1 BE THE BIG FISH Being a bigger fish in a smaller pond is empowering. You can market, influence and take ownership around decisions when there are fewer people to object.

2 VARIETY There is bigger scope to work across different department­s and have more responsibi­lity than in a larger organisati­on. This increases a worker’s knowledge and depth.

3 INSIDER KNOWLEDGE Working in a smaller environmen­t lets you learn all aspects of a business from the inside out more quickly.

4 THINGS MOVE QUICKLY Bureaucrac­y can get the better of workers in larger businesses but in small companies, decisions can be made fairly quickly.

5BE ACCOUNTABL­E There’s nowhere to hide when you do a bad job in small business. Some workers may see that as a bad thing. It also means it is easier to get noticed when you do a great job. Being rewarded and recognised makes small business a good option.
