Pros

Salaries are being paid on time.

Cons

The BBJ I knew for years has changed. In mid June of 2016 BBj was aquired by a private investment company Dubin &Clark. This investment company buys companies runs them for a while then sells them for a profit. They need to increase profits so they can get top price and move on, BBJ has become a stressful place to work in. It’s because numbers matter more than workers, making us do more and getting yelled at if there’s not enough time in the day. There is hardly a CEO (he is absent most of the time). The CFO is now the COO. In my opinion he should have stayed the CFO to say the least. They hired a person to manage sales, she is new to the linen industry and is ruthless. Her job is to keep us under pressure! At the end of the day we are working harder for the investors so BBJ will be worth a lot of money so they can sell it and we are left to worry about our jobs.

Pros

love my co workers. They are my best friends. Keeps me going in this hostile atmosphere.

Cons

This is how some of our customers call us now. After 35 years being the BEST linen rental company in the US, we became a Private Equity investment that is going to be sold soon. No more home for us but a place of work. Huge difference. Management with hardly any industry experience and linen rental experience. It’s all about the profits. Not us the human being.

Pros

Multiple locations. Great industry with happy customers.

Cons

Since our company was bought by a private equity firm, we no longer feel the need to stay there. A lot of my peers are working for a paycheck. We wait for opportunities elsewhere.
