10 Reasons to Stay in the Corporate Rat Race
Not saying I agree with these.....
1. Security
You know you'll receive a paycheck.
2. Health Insurance (USA)
It's absurdly expensive to pay for insurance outside of an employer.
3. Can be easy
Running your own business is definitely harder. You can hide and coast in a corporate setting, depending on the role. Also, after you have some experience, you might even be on auto-pilot.
4. People
You might like your co-workers. You may not have many people you hang out with outside of work.
5. Comfort
Staying inside the box is easier than venturing out into the unknown. Even if you switch companies, 'the devil you know is often better than the devil you don't.'
6. 9-5
Most corporate roles are M-F. 9-5. No weekends. Not awful.
7. You might like your manager
Have read most people leave because of poor management.
8. Prestige
If you work at a well-known organization.
9. Resources
Larger organizations have more resources available to do your job.
10. To learn
Often easier to learn while getting paid than doing it on your own.
