Bad Company by Megan Greenwell

Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream

Bad Company explores how private equity affects everyday life by following four American workers—a Toys R Us floor supervisor, a rural doctor, a local newspaper journalist, and a public housing organizer—whose employers were transformed by buyouts. Through their stories the book shows how private equity ownership can reshape jobs, public services, and communities, and examines the industry’s secrecy, financial priorities, and wider social consequences.
