Pros

Started off great, the new owners are driving growth. The leadership need the growth to fund their buyout.

Not sure the new owners understand the market they have bought into

Pros

Up until this point I spent my entire career at this company. It was like we were a family. I loved this company and recommended it colleagues and potential clients alike.

Cons

When the company sold a controlling interest in itself to a private equity group, we went from being our client’s trusted advisor, to being our owner’s trusted revenue source.
