My view

I have worked for both large and smaller companies, while I found it easier to get into large companies I also tended not to like the environment. Most of the larger places I have worked for have had very political infrastructure which makes getting certain things done reasonably a nightmare. It also tends to be a less personal (though this isn't always the case for all companies, some are worse than others, big or small).

I have always preferred smaller environments and companies though, as I am at now. I find they tend to be a little more laid back, and since they usually face challenges with limited human resources sometimes you get to experiment a little bit outside your normal job decription, and if the company grows, you have more potential for growth.

All in all, it depends n the company.
