What was it like to get your first job in a startup?

The experience is really bad, the boss instills some ideas every day that you can earn more than 10,000 a month as long as you open a bill, and sprinkle some chicken soup on everyone if you have nothing to do. Then force you to bill, and if you don't, the salary will be halved.

Since I started a start-up, I have found that I can fix sockets, computers, and light bulbs, and I feel like I have become a decathlon and can do anything.

For those who have just graduated, it is stressful, the tasks are heavy, and there are many things to be done by one person. There is simply no one who has the kung fu to guide you in progressing and how to learn. After such a difficult environment, if you change companies in the future, you will feel that you have gone from a region to a paradise wherever you go.

My first job was in a start-up company, and the salary was pitifully low, but the advantage was that I learned a lot of things there, a lot of principles of life, which helped me enter a large company, which was worth more than a salary.

Working overtime every day, and worrying about whether the boss will not be able to pay the salary? Will it be disbanded. However, there is a lot to learn.

Overtime is the norm, my current company is like this, work at 8 o'clock in the morning, get off work at 22 o'clock in the evening The boss still feels early, there will be one day a week to work overtime until 12 o'clock or even 2 o'clock in the morning, the office environment is not good, the chair is 20 of the kind, death is uncomfortable.

When I was looking for a job after graduation, a large company thought I had no work experience, so I went to an entrepreneurial company. It's really bad there, in **, the boss is the sky, the boss is the earth, you have to do what she says. After all, I just graduated and didn't understand anything, and after using me for a month, the boss fired me on the grounds that I didn't understand anything, and the most hateful thing was that I didn't pay a dime.

Every day is like being beaten with chicken blood, if you occasionally slack off and see others like chicken blood, you will be unconsciously driven.

After I went to a startup, I was like a crazy person every day, with only work in my eyes, and I didn't know what Saturdays and Sundays were, and I didn't know what holidays were.

I really hate such a company, all kinds of unconditional overtime, transfer positions for no reason, not to mention tiredness, and the salary is so low.

It's better not to go to this kind of company, it's almost gone in a few years.

<> graduates with limited ability go to a large company to work steadily? I have some objections to this assumption, and now many large companies around me have begun to adjust the company's performance appraisal system, and no company is willing to pay for "idlers", and if you don't work hard in a large company, you will face elimination.

Therefore, whether it is a graduate with limited ability or a high-achieving student from a double first-class university, everyone will have the opportunity to choose whether to work in a start-up company or not. For whether to choose or not, let's first look at the SWOT analysis of startup work.

1. Strength (Startup Work Advantage).

You may become a start-up team of this company, a veteran, and you will have the opportunity to grow with this startup. You can have more opportunities to implement your plans and programs, because small startups make faster decisions, and maybe you are the decision-maker of a certain module. So you'll get a workout, and you'll probably get a more direct reward for your efforts.

2. Weakness

The opposite of the advantage is that there will be fewer people in the startup, and you will have to do many things yourself. As an employee, it will be difficult for you to get buy-in from your colleagues and leaders. You need to think of your own creativity, do your own copywriting, and do your own execution, which is relatively hard.

There can also be a lot of problems with the benefits of startups. For example, only the minimum base of five insurances and one housing fund is purchased, and there is no additional commercial insurance; There is no enterprise annuity; There is no paid annual leave and so on.

3. Opportunity (the opportunity faced by the startup company).

The capital market is very active now, and we often see a company getting the nth round of financing. In a start-up company, you will first have the opportunity to be a shareholder, and through your hard work, let the boss see your irreplaceability and value, and get some consultants. If one day the company can go public or be acquired, you will have the opportunity to earn an objective income.

At the same time, the honing of you by a startup will shape your entrepreneurial spirit and abilities, increasing your chances of entrepreneurial success.

4. Threat (the threat to the work of the startup).

You may have to be ready to leave at any time: if you are not qualified for your position, create value for the company, and let investors see the hope of returns, then the boss will quickly find someone to replace you, and the boss will not have time to wait for you to adapt to the environment and think about what to do. Maybe one day the company runs out of financing and doesn't get new financing, the company will go bankrupt, and maybe you won't even get compensation.

If you work in a large company, it is certain that you will be relatively stable, and you will not be as busy as in a startup, but there is a limit to the promotion you can get, and there may not be many opportunities for promotion. I hope you are well informed, analyzed, and prepared before making your own choice.

I'm going to get in because the company that just started up has a lot of prospects.

I might choose it, because I think if you go to a company like this and you can work with other people, you might become one of the shareholders.

It's true that there are many opportunities for startups, but there are also many things to do. The most important thing is to look at the development of the startup company and the vision of the boss. Because it means that if you fight again, you will either die or live.

Stable state-owned enterprises or iron rice bowls are the kind of half-dead. Because their wages can't keep up with prices, the interest they save is far worse than investment and financial management.

Hello this netizen, thank you for your question!

Everyone's answer to this question will be different.

To be honest, I haven't worked in a startup, and I don't even know much about the concept of a startup. So for this question, I'm a capital ignorance. Personally, I feel that working in a startup company will be more stressful.

Of course, no matter what unit you work in, there will always be pressure, mainly depending on whether you can handle it. Working at a startup, you may not be able to live a nine-night life.

5. A normal life with two days off a week. Because you need to be busy every day, you may also choose to go to the company to work overtime on weekends. Leave work at 5 o'clock?

How could it be! Generally, they just eat something and continue to go back to the company to work overtime, but many people mistakenly think that they are inefficient, resulting in frequent overtime. But what about the facts?

It's that they have too much work to do. So there are a lot of people who also leave because they can't stand too much pressure.

There are pros and cons to working in a startup, from 2015 to 2016, I grew up in a startup company for 2 years, from a novice to an Internet operator, and I would like to share my experience here. In 2015, when I first entered the Internet industry, I was completely 0 basic, and later I was invited by the owner of the startup company to join the team and become a core member of the founding team, and since then I have started the work rhythm of the startup.

Let's start with working hours. Generally, start-up companies are in the exploratory stage of time management, and unless the founder has good business management experience before, there is basically no concept of time in the early stage. In other words, overtime is commonplace when busy, and during the two years of the company, I worked overtime for more than half of the working day, and when a new project was launched, I worked overtime until the early hours of the morning for two consecutive months.

Secondly, let's talk about working meals. Generally, the company's working meals are basically takeaways. There is a stage when the food delivery company tries to ask the aunt to cook to improve the food, after all, the work intensity is still very high.

Later, due to time problems and wasted meals, it was abandoned. Therefore, the lunch and dinner problems of startups are basically take-out fast food, and occasionally overtime is late, and the boss will organize a supper together.

Finally, let's talk about the organizational structure of the company. Generally, start-up companies have few personnel in the early stage, often holding multiple positions, which belongs to flat management. Any problems encountered in management can be reported directly to the boss. The company's response speed is relatively fast and the work efficiency is high.

Startups also have good aspects, such as many learning opportunities, you can often follow the boss to participate in various meetings to learn; The speed of self-improvement is fast, because few people teach it by hand, many things need to be thought and learned by themselves, and because they have to wear many hats, they can learn a lot of skills; It is easier to expand your network because you come into contact with different people every day, and it is easy to meet industry-related peers.

Let's start with my experience. Start at 9 a.m. and leave work at 6 p.m. It's a normal working time, right, but everyone usually leaves work at 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening.

About 10-12 hours of work a day. It's not that our work efficiency is low, we deserve to work overtime, it's that we have a lot of work. However, there are not many people.

One person tops the workload of two people. Catch the last subway home every day.

The home is the place where you sleep, and you spend more time at the office than at home. Three meals a day, eat some bread and drink milk in the morning, and eat some fast food with colleagues around for lunch and dinner. But with such hard work, the salary is just an ordinary salary, and there is not much money left in a month after excluding the rent, plumbing, and rice money.

But if I had to do it again, I would still choose my current startup. Yes, I was tired from work, but I felt fulfilled. The atmosphere of the whole company is positive, not many people want to be lazy, there is no intrigue between colleagues, and everyone often encourages each other when they get together.

I also worked for a large company, and I had just come out of the internship at that time. Seriously, I don't know if it's my bad luck, the company I interned at and every day of my life I don't know what I'm doing. Colleagues are just a greeting relationship, and there are all kinds of intrigues between each other.

Now this society is very cruel to entrepreneurs, although many people are successful, we have also seen many people from scratch to a net worth of tens of millions, but as Ma Yun said, today is cruel, tomorrow is even more cruel, most people die the night before and do not see the sun the next day. We usually care too much about the success of entrepreneurship, but we don't care about the losers, in fact, entrepreneurial failures abound.

For entrepreneurs, first of all, we must have a good body, without a good body there is no chance of success in entrepreneurship, entrepreneurs are ready to work day and night for entrepreneurship, at this time there is no good body, the result is not to look at the imagination. It is common for entrepreneurs to wear multiple hats at the beginning of their business if they want to be a superman, and it is certain that they will be under pressure, so a good body is extremely important.

Then there's leadership. For most people, leadership is the most important, many people want to learn leadership, but this is not learned, many people learn more and more not like, a person with leadership charm can let his subordinates follow him with all their hearts, this is a major reason for people to follow him in the early days of entrepreneurship, no money, no future, only leadership charm can ensure that everyone is desperate to rush forward.

My ears are full of all kinds of successful financing news, there is always endless odd work at hand, and I always want to quit my job.

Tell me about a brother who is now working in a start-up company.

This is called M, a senior brother who learns programming, he has just come out for an internship, and like other students, he has the same academic qualifications, and his academic works are not much different, but this senior brother is the best in their class, after coming out of the internship.

Not to mention how the treatment is in the later stage, this senior brother has been recognized by a start-up company that has just started for a long time with his ability and academic works, and this senior brother's vision and thinking have also been appreciated by the company's boss, and he soon decided to settle the internship unit than other students.

When I first arrived at this entrepreneurial team, my brother was mainly responsible for the framework of Android and JS, and the process of work was also a learning process, and the knowledge learned in school was often not practical in work, and the company also gave him enough time to arrange freely, but there was a certain deadline.

For about a month, he replenished his level ability day and night, and he made the results that the boss wanted, and the internship period that was supposed to be 3 months before turning into a regular was solved in less than two months.

Compared with other classmates, he is the first student to become a regular student, from 3k during the internship period to 5k for regular employees, which also includes five insurances and one housing fund, and when the company is fully listed, he can get the corresponding shares, which gives people the feeling of envy, jealousy and hatred.

This is just a small success story, and some students went to a start-up company, because the company was negative, and even the internship period had to be delayed, so they couldn't stand it and quit their jobs and looked for a job.

It is uncertain whether you can go to a startup company like a fish in water, and if you have the ability and you choose the right entrepreneurial team, then you can also have a good share.
