In this set of materials, both the reading and the lecture deal with self-employed. Regarding this issue, the lecturer argues that running their own business is not a better alternative. This contradicts the writer's claim that there are clear reasons people prefer to running their own business.
First, according to the lecturer, stifling corporate culture is not a appropriate reason people leave their company. Although they wish to run their own business, there are lots of thing to handle with such as regulations or authorities-related things. This point refutes the writer's argument that running their own business can be a better option to avoid stifling corporate work like chain of command.
Moreover, the lecturer goes on to say that running their own business may not guarantee job securities. Rather, beginning self-employed has high risk compare with working for company. This counters the reading passage's viewpoint that people tend to run their own business because of low job security.
Lastly, the lecturer mentions that extra benefits are still attractive for workers. Even if it is a fact that companies curtail worker's benefits, these are sufficient incentive that may attract people companies. This casts doubt on the writer's claim that lessoned benefits deter people from working for corporate is distorted argument. |
