Pros

- Fast growing business with ambitious growth plans, businesses are profitable - Founder led / Chairman's vision is impeccable in terms of sensing out business opportunities and piecing together a strong business model (its businesses are now the paradigm in the industry) - Privately owned means nimble decision making and making things happen without the layers of bureaucracy and decisions are long term focused - Expanding business also means secured employment, especially during this tumultuous times - Action and KPI driven means not much time wasted on politicking, the numbers speak for itself

Cons

- Annual leave and benefits are lackluster compared to other companies - Travel policy is improving but still has further room for improvements

Rapidly Expanding Asia-focused Conglomerate

Associate director
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

A privately owned conglomerate which continues to go from strength to strength. Already in either the leading or top three global positions in pulp & paper and palm oil, now steadily growing in energy, property and related R&D. Private ownership means little red tape but immense responsibility and growth potential. The company weathered the pandemic well - no salary cuts but decent bonuses. The Chairman's vision is remarkable - he sees opportunity and seizes it. Now, he has a seasoned G2 (second generation) management team to bring in the necessary professionalism. Family business means commitment for the long haul. This is secure employment during an insecure moment in time. They're on a hiring spree now, attracting from blue chips who are eager to be more nimble and entrepreneurial.

Cons

Family-owned business means you must adapt to their ways - which is decisive, accountable and KPI-driven. If you can't do this, you won't last. Office space and IT are common concerns but you get used to it. All I can say is that RGE has prospered over the past two years while the fancy blue chips have struggled, and wasted money on decorative office space no one uses anymore. Owners spend the money on two things - acquisitions/investments and salary. NO waste means more money in your pocket - that is, if you deliver.
