It's very true. Companies pretty much provide healthcare that may be a better deal than a freelancer can get, paid vacation, and stable income during periods of time when it might for one reason or another be difficult to find work.

If something goes wrong with that business, or they end up doing things in a way that is not relevant to the wider world, you can get screwed.
