In that case, it's pretty well certain that you needn't apply to work
at any company with much more than about 100 employees, because once
companies grow past that size, the HR function starts specializing

Staying with small companies has a number of merits.  There are also
some demerits; generally, large companies have more resources to play
with, and that sometimes matters.
