Are we suitable for working in a big company?
However, the first viewpoint of He Caitou in this paper reveals a phenomenon in the talent operation mode of large companies. The platform does not belong to or represent the true strength of most people.
The first advantage of a big company is that it will set a minimum threshold value when selecting people, such as 75 points or above is suitable for the company. But in practice, many companies only need 85 points of balance. For example, in ancient dynasties, for the sake of national stability, there were always some people who did not welcome those excellent people, because they would upset the balance and easily lead to internal civil strife within the company, leading to the final rebellion or usurpation of the throne because of many supporters. Of course, the same is true of big companies in reality. We only need most people with 85 points to maintain the normal operation of the company, and a small amount of 95 points of creative value is enough to promote the development of the company. This phenomenon will be formed. Those who come in with 75 points need to work hard to improve to 85 points, while those with 95 points will be pushed to 85 points if they don't have absolute opportunities to get ahead. This has caused a wave of people to be miserable when they are promoted, and a wave of people are depressed when they work. This is a big company. Caitou also mentioned that the most feared thing is that some people mistake the 85 points of the platform for their own abilities and publicize them everywhere. As a result, they hit a wall when they changed careers or jumped ship.
The second point that he Caitou mentioned in the article is how much help a big company can give to the improvement of personal ability. In fact, it depends on the height of your position and the breadth of your tasks when you join the company.
At present, large companies have had a mature model for such a long time, with clear structural hierarchy, detailed division of labor and clear task subdivision. As one point of view says, large companies need more masters who can install screws quickly and accurately. Everything is arranged. Everyone has a fixed place, a fixed office and a fixed name to handle the next "unique" job. If we want to improve our ability, we must do it at the management level rather than the technical level. At the technical level, especially in special industries, joining a job in the past means that it will be more difficult to change jobs in the future. At the same time, we must have the opportunity to take charge of complex projects, because in this way, we can have a more comprehensive understanding of the company's business processes and have more opportunities to work together through the linkage of various departments and personnel. If neither is true, then what we learn when we enter a big company is nothing more than simple abilities such as how to deal with people and how to attract others' attention, but these abilities will be available in any office.
He Caitou's third point of view is that most people enter big companies for stability, but this is often a judgment made without understanding the market environment.
Especially in this society that pursues rapid economic development, rapid product iteration and intensive personnel flow, seeking stability represents more of a chronic death, so this idea is very terrible. Moreover, the article also mentioned that the idea of stability in big companies will hinder people's promotion, and when you are above the middle level, you will guide the following work. Moreover, large companies are big because they have accumulated and improved various market shares in the market for many years, so that the unilateral resources of most industries are superior to those used here. We also know that if we are in a high position, we are more vulnerable to the market impact of low-level enterprises. In this internet age, a little carelessness or slow pace may lead us to be dragged down. Look at Lucia, Samsung and Blueberry in the mobile phone industry, and Wal-Mart, Vanke, Wanda and Gome in the retail industry, all because large enterprises can't keep up with the changes of the times, resulting in a decrease in market share or even bankruptcy. Therefore, large enterprises bring us more sense of crisis than stability.
Of course, all the above contents are viewed from a higher level as a bystander. We can believe and reflect on ourselves in combination with reality, but we should keep our opinions when necessary.
For example, for myself, a good platform is still an important reason for me to stay in a big company. Of course, according to the first point of view, I belong to the kind of person who has just entered the company for 75-80 points, and my ability is not very strong. While I am still young and have capital, I will try my best to make use of the company's resources to grow myself to at least 85 points as soon as possible. There will definitely be pain, and so will going to that company. What we call happy learning and growth, more importantly, is to adjust the mentality and know in time where the bottleneck period of each stage is.
Finally, whether it is suitable for large companies varies from person to person. We must abandon some opinions and ideas circulating among the public. It doesn't matter where you grow up, whether you are suitable or not, only your heart knows. May we all find our own stage to shine.
