Do you want to work in a big company or small company?one of my memories in my job seeking experience in Japan is the color of job seekers' suits. When I entered into the interview room of one of the companies, I saw job seekers (all were graduated school students) in dark gray suits. Meanwhile I wore a light brown suit. I was teased and regarded as a heresy by one interviewer.Most Japanese students go to job interviews in similar dark gray suits in this economic slump. They encounter difficulties to get good jobs and reconsider what they really want to do and what they look for in a company: economic stability, freedom in your job, or good salary?In my case, I wanted to join any big company. Luckily, I got a job in a middle-big company in Japan. Still, I think that my choice was a good one.Certainly in recent economic slumps, you can see many big companies collapsing. Seemingly you can't say you are safe, and economically stable even if you're working for a big company. But, it is the same for people who are working for small companies and worst of all, big companies are trying to cut costs and the burden of cost cutting is passed on to small companies as you saw in the case of restructuring of Nissan, Japanese big auto manufacturer. In that sense you are a bit safer in big companies than in small companies.Meanwhile some say that in big companies, employees are just small cogs in a wheel, with no freedom in ones job responsibility. Is that true? Big companies know that they can't survive in these economic slumps.
