Everything has a trade-off. I worked for a small business once. I lost my job when the owner decided to be a moron and signed a contract that guaranteed a manufacturer that he'd sell X number of their widgets per year or he'd have to buy them himself. Turned out he had to buy them himself and his company collapsed like a wet paper sack. It can happen to big companies too, but it's far less likely as having some amount of bureaucracy usually prevents one moron from collapsing the entire operation in one dumb move.
