According to NoLimit research, the majority of Indonesian netizens prefer working at state-owned enterprises (SOEs) rather than becoming civil servants (PNS) or employees of startups.

NoLimit conducted this research by collecting data from social media conversations related to the keywords "startup," "SOE," and "PNS" during the period of January-November 2022.

The results show that out of approximately 825,000 conversations collected, 63% expressed a desire to work at an SOE. Conversations regarding the desire to become a civil servant or a startup employee were significantly smaller in proportion, as shown in the graph.

"The driving factor for people wanting to work at SOEs is the high salaries and benefits," stated NoLimit in its report titled *The Development of Startup Issues on Social Media*.

NoLimit found that the majority of netizens perceive startups as young people's companies (32%), companies in the digital field (27%), or companies that are highly innovative (22%).

Some netizens consider the work style in startups to be more flexible and the communication style more relaxed. However, others believe that startup employees risk excessive workloads, low salaries, and are vulnerable to layoffs (PHK).

"As much as 77% of conversations related to startups were dominated by the phenomenon of layoffs," said NoLimit.
