From the personal growth perspective;
Bigco can mean being constantly surrounded by experts and having to compete with more experienced coworkers to get the fun projects or extra responsibility that make a job rewarding. It can also mean lots of easy learning from well experienced coworkers.
Smallco can mean less expert coworkers to learn from but lots of room to grow and lots of experience gained from extra responsibility.
