No Job Security

When working for someone else, large or small, your job security is only as good as the end of the day. Owners and managers are always thinking. 'do I still need that person?' Most of the time the answer is yes but when profits drop or costs increase, everyone is probably not safe. You may be a great worker or staff member but could they get the job done for less money? They may not say it but they are thinking it. Always make yourself more valuable than you are being paid for.

An entrepreneur does not have the job security concerns like employees. They are more concerned with sales, profits and growth. A key staff member for an entrepreneur is more secure because they rely on them to keep the company going. Job security, pensions, vacations, health insurance and other perks have gone by the wayside in order to keep companies competitive in the world market.
