The Struggle for the Soul of Ben and Jerry’s (2014)

Just a heads up littlewing, your comment is marked as dead. I went through your profile and it doesn't look like any of your comments were particularly offbase enough to warrant the shadowban so I'm not sure what's going on.

Selling your company is like giving up your child for adoption in exchange for cash. If you are really incapable of taking care of your child, then you are doing the right thing and need to accept that and move on when the new parents don't do things the way you did.

If you can't live with giving away your child for money, you never should have given it up.

As much as I like Ben and Jerry along with the company and ice cream they made famous, Unilever is not the bad guy.

The partners that owned the company I worked for sold out like this. It's been really frustrating to see how it affected them and their employees, and the morale on our team dropped significantly. We all said that "they deserved it" because they were paid for their effort and sacrifice. But, we are also feel sorry for them, because to get compensated for their hard work, they inadvertently sacrificed what made the company great. We often blame the new parent company, but it isn't their fault.
