Entrepreneurs To begin with, looking for a job is getting harder due to there is to much offer of candidates and a few demand of workers for businesses. The economic crisis is a fact that has made many people set up a business. This is a way to get a job. But this option has pros and cons. Concerning advantages, the first advantage is flexibility, when you are working for yourself, you set your own schedule. You can come and go as you please and generally work whatever hours suit your business. You also have flexibility in your tasks, functions or other aspects. Another pro is control, because when you are working for yourself is great as you can make your own mind up about things and you aren´t driven by someone else. In addition, no having to ask anybody can mean a great deal. Last but not least you set your own work style, workplace environment and workplace equipment. Some bosses are better than other at upgrading the technology, choosing the location and so on. Some disadvantages could be for example, it takes a lot of personal time because you have more responsibilities, you are responsible for your decisions and mistakes. Also, you need to be committed to your customers, suppliers etc. A crucial con is that you don´t have an assurance of salary and compensation. There is no real assurance of how much you will earn next month. As regards the question about difficulties for entrepreneurs, personally I believe the main issue nowadays is to find a business that is profitable, for instance, a product or service that can have demand, that´s why is important to know other similar companies and market opportunities to set realistic goals. Another essential problem is financial baking and of course, decision making because difficulties will turn up, at least, at the beginning. To answer the last question, from my point of view, it´s easier to work for a company. First of all, because you have more economic security. In addition, you don´t have to be worried about your tasks, your boss will tell you what you have to do every day and also usually you work with workmates and sometimes they can become your friends. In short, I think there isn't any difference between being your own boss or working for a company. In the last case, you can have fewer problems, more time and you know how much money you will earn at the end of the month. No matter if you are a manager or an employee, if you want to have success, you will have to work hard for it.
