In this part, please give your opinion about a specific topic. Try to use as much time as possible Give specific reasons or examples to support your opinion. to answer. Preparation time is 30 seconds. Your response time is 60 seconds. I agree that it is better to work for a big company rather than a small one. This is because big companies are not likely to go bankrupt as they usually have a lot of money to sustain their operations. Thus, we don't have to worry about getting fired, and this will keep us stress free. On the other hand, small companies do not have much money, so they are more likely to cut down on labor costs. Employees at small companies are always at the risk of getting fired or a pay decrease. In addition, big companies often have their own training courses, or they allow the employees to educate themselves using their companies' expenses. Therefore, you have more opportunities for self-improvement. For instance, I work for a big company, and I took a lot of online training courses at the company. Some of my colleagues even received their MBA at our company's expense. These are the reasons why I agree with the statement.
