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?
In
this
modern era, everybody wants to become their own boss and work
according to their own timetable. Because of the changes in their lifestyle, they become more independent rather than depending on the hiring companies. So, in this
essay, I will discuss the reasons why most people like to do jobs as self-employed instead
of working in any organization and also
highlight the demerits of this
trend.
To begin
with, the main and foremost reason is that everybody wants to shine their name in the world. So that, everyone knows him/
her and praise their effort instead
of others company's name. Moreover
, they can work
from home by using their phones or laptop and save travelling time. In addition
to this
, social media plays a great role for youngsters to earn some money by showing their talent and this
trend creates curiosity for others who also
become self-employed by doing paid promotions of any new launching products as well as using their skills. For instance
, someone has great cooking skills and he/
she share this
knowledge with their social media friends by making videos. If the number of people's like his/
her video, the social sites pay some money to those users. Nowadays, nobody prefers to do a job by taking the headache of the company's boss and manager.
With the positive sites, there are some negative points of this
trend. First
of all, people become lazy and stay away from the competition, which is very important to be successful in life. Because, if they face any competition, then
they can know about their weakness and improve this
to be stronger than others. Furthermore
, there are more opportunities available to work
in any organization as compared to the self-employed. For example
, if a person starts from a junior level he/
she can reach the manager level by doing hard work
and gaining more information about their field, but this
is impossible to take this
type of experience without working in a company.
In conclusion, anyone can perform as a self-employed but they do not get any memorised experience in their life to working with the team member and learn the leadership skills. It is also
important to work
in an organization so that they can know about global competition.Submitted by manghuman1994 on
