Business outlook
Pros
Small companies are usually more nimble than their large-company counterparts. Because they’re often more specialized, when the market shifts, a small company is better able to shift along with it.
Cons
Even stable and long-lived small companies have fewer resources. They tend to generate less revenue, which means less cash to go around. That may mean that your technology is older or not the latest version—and that can include operating systems and software. And, fewer resources also means you’ll get less professional support. While there may be some internal training, there is likely very little outside training. There might be a small training budget, but it may not allow you to attend outside training very often.
