Dear college graduates,
Looking for work at large, established companies? Going that route means you'll start your career as a cog in a well-oiled machine. You will go through formal training, have relatively few real responsibilities at the outset, and, if you're lucky, maybe progress ever-so-slowly up the corporate ladder.
For most people, this is a safe and comfortable way to start their work lives.
On the other hand, if you have the stomach to work in an entrepreneurial environment—which may mean below-market wages, impossibly high expectations, and more than a few sleepless nights—you open the door to an exciting and wild ride, not to mention invaluable work experience. Most start-ups fail, but the ones that succeed can take off quickly and profoundly.
