In general, a family owned business tends to treat their staff like one of the family. They include the staff in decisions more often and celebrate the holidays together. This can be the perfect environment for the right person. If you are someone who likes a more corporate structure, than a family-owned business environment may not be for you.

Another positive quality in a business that’s run by family is that the environment tends to be easier going and forgiving when it comes to work schedules, mistakes and the employee’s own family situations. In a family business, you might get the ability to work a more flexible schedule or even part-time hours.
