Depends on legal definitions in the country you're looking at, living in, thinking about etc. It would probably be realistic to think that something that calls itself an "empresa" might be a tad bigger than a simple "compañía" but this is only very general.
For example, I did quite a lot of consultancy in Chile for the Empresa Nacional de Mineria a government run enterprise but the local supermarket chain also referred to itself as an "empresa".
