Employees of large companies generally have a certain contempt and disdain for employees of small companies or startups. This kind of contempt comes from the fact that employees of large factories believe that the company they work for has better benefits, higher position status, broader development space and other advantages, while employees of small companies or start-up companies are considered to have not entered a large factory. Those who have insufficient abilities or do not have enough opportunities to enter a large factory.

The existence of the chain of disdain for job hopping in large factories is mainly because large companies have gained more resources and reputation in market competition, so they can provide better benefits and career development opportunities, attracting many outstanding talents. Small companies or startups, on the other hand, may not be able to offer the same benefits and career development opportunities due to limited resources, and are therefore seen as inferior options to larger companies. At the same time, employees of large companies may have more pride and belonging to their company's teams and products, while employees of small companies or startups may be relatively weak in this regard.

However, the chain of contempt for job-hopping in large companies is essentially a kind of prejudice and discrimination, which ignores the individual's ability and value and only evaluates others based on the size of the company they work for. In the workplace, individual abilities and potential should be encouraged and valued, rather than focusing on the size of the company. Whether it is a large company or a small company, they all have their own advantages and disadvantages. Only by making a choice that suits you based on your personal situation and career development goals can you better achieve your career development.
