A Very Good Thread Raised by Brother Nabeel....
Ambitious Students often want to start their careers with what they consider to be a 'Major Employer'.....A Multinational,Bigname firms and Big4s will offer training,possibly travel, good stipend,and a secure career with unlimited possibilities...Bigger Firms undoubtedly offer more opportunities but the bigger the organisation the smaller the role of individual....Although initiatives and responsibilities are encouraged there may be fewer opportunities to excercise these skills until you get a certin level of seniority.....I see lot of fellow students and other seniors and after moving through 3 or 4 forums i analysed one thing that every one want to go for Big4 and every one has prioritised their careers as PwC,E&Y,KPMG and then Delloite.....working in Big firm no doubt will open lot of opportunities and no doubt will be a value addition point however despite of huge opportunities small firms will certainly give lot of advantages than that of Bigger Firms.........lets discuss them
1)In Small Firms you have an opportunity to learn quickly.
2)In Small Firms there will be quick 'JOB ROTATION' so that individual will have a chance to learn more than routine tasks.
3)In Small Firms if you prove yourself as an Asset for them then you will be having great exposure not only in your firm but also outside the firm.
4)In the context of small firms 'hands-on' training becomes a valuable way to learn.
5)And last but not the least that that the 'ENVIRONMENT'of smaller firm is rather much friendly than that of Big4 i didn't mean that small Firms are informal organisation....
However despite of Smaller Firms Bigger Firms are having lot of advantages and one can't deprive them from Bigger Organisations.......
Also remember one thing that is "Its better to be an Employee of a popular school than a Principal of your own School"......
