What happens when private equity buys your company?

Bad Company
/
Megan Greenwell

The demise of Toys 'R' Us and the struggles of a small Wyoming hospital are two of four case studies that author Megan Greenwell explored in her book, "Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream." She discusses how private equity works and some of the dangers she thinks it presents to the American economy.
