There are wide range of companies and employers available in each and every sector. Starting from very small start-ups, up to large corporates, there are many. It depends on the individual to decide the kind of company that suits his personality and needs. His likes, dislikes, and experience are to be considered before choosing the right company to work.
To identify the best employer, look out for FTSE 100 in the search engine, or search for best employers and it will give you the list of companies having comfortable working conditions. Specify terms like best companies for single mother, best companies for part time, and so on depending on your personal needs. Also, receive suggestions and ideas from relatives and friends for choosing the company that caters to your needs.
Small firms
In small companies, due to lower capital and investments and resulting lower profit, the salary paid is low. The environment is less secure and there cannot be an idea of stable, long term relationship with the company. These business owners micro-manage operations without any delegate responsibility.
Medium sized firms
As compared to small companies, one can get better benefits in medium companies. This includes healthcare and contributory pension. They have relatively smaller number of employees as the pay structure is flexible too and thus they can individually tailor financial packages. These businesses will acutely be aware of the bottom line and hire and fire decisions with clear financial goals.
Long work hours, changes in level of responsibility, higher expectation, etc are likely here. There are chances for you to include variety at work, but not like small company. The organization structure is shallow and the advancement is too limited.
Large firms
Security and benefits are large plus in these companies. This also gives enough opportunities to move in the direction you prefer. As there are large employees working here, the pay structures are strict because of large financial backing.
