nowadays many people choose to be self-employed rather than to work for a company or organization why might this be the case? what could be the disadvantages of being self-employed?

We have seen a rising number of start- ups in the

last

decade. The Silicon Valley in California is the paradise for entrepreneurs who would like to start their own business. They choose to be self-employed rather than to work for a company or organization. But what are the reasons for

this

and what could be the disadvantages of self-employment?

To begin

, people want to be more independent and they would like to choose their working hours. Of course,

this

is impossible if you are part of a company.

However

, home offices are very popular nowadays, but shift workers,

for instance

, cannot do your job at home, nor can they decide anything about their timetable.

Consequently

, people quit their job and become self-employed.

Secondly

, workers have to obey orders, no matter if it is a wrong or correct decision.

Furthermore

, people want to be their own leader and they choose the leave the company and start their own business.

On the other hand

, if you work on your own, you have to take care whether you have enough work to do. You are responsible for your company`s finances. As an employee of an organization,

for example

, you do not have to be concerned about

this

. The salary is transferred to your bank account at the end of the month without any necessary action. In conclusion, people often think it is very easy and not a big deal to become self-employed, but there come many other tasks and responsibilities with

this

decision.
