Most of us dream of either working in a startup
or starting a company on our own. Working in a startup has associated risks and rewards which one should know beforehand. Read on:

Pros of working in a startup

Flexibility of role
Typically startup companies have limited number of people and there is always a lot of work which needs to be completed. So if you work in a startup you have the flexibility to expand your role and take up some tasks which may not be expected in your role. Nobody dislikes if you do more than what is expected in a startup.

Higher Salary
Startups typically pay 15-20% higher than the market salary which you can expect to get

Cons of working in a startup

Long Hours
Most startups require employees to put in hard work and long hours. So you have to be mentally prepared for that.

Uncertainty
You will deal with uncertainty almost on a daily basis in a startup. Most of the startups have unproven business model so the priorities change very frequently. You may be asked to work on one thing today and something other the next day. Be ready to face such situations.

Transition from startup to large organization
If you plan to move back to large organizations after working for few years in a startup, you may find this transition to be difficult. For ex, startups almost never have processes which can be found in abundance in any large organization. So be prepared for this cultural shock.
