Someone rightly replied that in a big organization, you'd most probably be working with drones. Bots, rather. Who are programmed to do what they have to do daily, and who'd most likely be lifeless creatures who you'd detest hanging out with. I am not saying this is the case in all big organizations, but that's what the law of averages says. And you'd just be one amongst the crowd. Just another expendable employee.
With a smaller organization, there are many advantages, as many have pointed out already. You'll have a say in what the company does. Best of all, you'll have freedom.
I guess the real argument here is not about the technology, but rather about the kind of organization that works right for you.
Just get your priorities right (money or happiness), and you'll know which one to choose.
P.S. - Sometimes, money IS happiness:o)
