"It was taken over by a group of individuals that I did not feel comfortable with."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"The original owner was great and made the company dynamics such that everyone felt part of the organization like a family. It made for a very tight-knit, team-oriented environment. The new owners came in and ran it like a company and told everyone that this is not a family, it's a business. It changed the entire feel of the organization. They also went for years not giving employees any type of cost-of-living increases and it felt very cold and impersonal."
