>Giant corporations generally pay better and invest more into their workforce than small business, that's why developed economies, with high levels of organisation, rely on larger firms. In my experience, this is entirely not true. The only places i've ever gotten fair wages, been treated like a valuable employee, received regular raises were businesses with between 10-20 employees. >The romanticism of small-business is extremely misplaced. Small business is unproductive, precarious, and as can be seen in this pandemic fragile to external shocks, offering virtually no security to their workforce The last place I worked before my current job had a workforce of 13-15 people at any given time. We were extremely organized and productive. We brought in anywhere from $30000-$50000/day for that company. The company's assets were well into the millions from the bank statements I seen. Our customers included people and businesses even hundreds of km away because of the quality of our work. Our work wasn't cheap either, even compared to our competitors, yet we regularly had so much business, we needed to turn down contracts and still constantly made money. All of my coworkers had been there for over a decade before I left. They all supported families and lived good lives off that job. We all genuinely cared about the success of that business and wanted everything we did there to reflect well on it. I have never felt that when working for any corporation other than when I'm forced to at mandatory 'pep meetings' or 'team building' bullshit they force you to participate in.
