Smaller companies if you want to work for free and have no benefits.
Big companies if you want the company to spend money on training you, good salaries, extra benefits and being to drop the job after going home for the day.

Maybe you mean startups? There are lots of small companies that pay very competitively and have great benefits. There are big companies where the pay and benefits are terrible along with forced OT or on call. I have worked at both.
I will take the small company over the big every single time, because in the small I have always been able to enact change to make things better (going as far as getting them to change the retirement provider to another one with better fund options). In a big company, even when it is clear there are problems, it can be almost impossible to push changes through.
Not even close to correct! I worked for a small company that paid me well and gave perks. I've also worked at a large company that didn't care for training and benefits.
