I am developing a new website.

The part of the title that contains the company name, which is to be appended to the title of every page, news article etc. is 31 characters long. And since we want to keep our page titles under/equal to 55-60 chars for good SEO, that gives us about 30 chars for the article title.

Should I remove the name of the company, or shorten it, so I can have more descriptive article titles? Or is it not really a problem?

If you will use company name at the end of title of every page. Company name will not be truncated, instead the title will be truncated. The number of characters your company name will cover, will be replaced by title characters.

I like to include the company name in the title. However, if the title is getting too long and it's getting truncated then I just remove the "• company" from the end. Works well for me like that.

What we normally do, is page title • companyname. We try to make the page title a max of 55-60 chars, all the remaining space on the SERP is the companyname.

We choose for this because when there is some room, you namedrop your name for that keyword, which is just as important as SEO itself (IMO).

I suggest you try to shorten your company name, sometimes you can use an abbreviation of some sort, increasing the effect of the previous paragraph.
