Pros

If you know the owners family personally, there's a high chance your basic salary will be higher and you'll be treated better. If you don't know the owners family in person, good bless your stay here. Amen!

Cons

Colonial, traditional culture. Beauracratic leadership. When the chairman or a director is to take the elevator, rest of the employees have to take the stairs. Work is from 8.30am to 5pm and includes a strict 30 minutes lunch break from 1pm to 1.30pm. Employees are advised to stand up and greet when the chairman or a director enters their respective department.
