What should i do? Stay in my family business or leave
I work in a family business started 30 years ago where two siblings are partners. Partner A ( my father ) and B( my uncle). They started from scratch and had an arrangement and ran it themselves. Took less risks, less growth, lived for the day and it was all good. I joined in 10 years later as a fresh grad and learnt the ropes from them.
Partner Bs son who is much younger joins the business 5 years ago. The brothers are getting old and have some differences between them once in a while on the way things are run. business is good things are pretty much run by my dad now.
I am trying to look into the future to see if there is a way i could work with my cousin but feel that there is a lack of trust and disconnect between both the families. the work ethic is lacking in the cousin
I am confused about what to do. Should i stay or venture on my own?
I am comfortable given the way the business has grown and am a bit worried about starting from scratch all over again if i were to do it on my own. But i dont see much of a future the way things are going as there is no plan for the future of this business.
one partner takes a salary but he isn't active anymore in the business. the other is active but i don't see him wanting to go full steam in the years to come.
