Tuesday, October 17 | Drop-In Discussion:
What Is Private Equity?
“These Are the Plunderers” by Gretchen Morgenson is about how so-called “private equity” firms buy companies, then lay off employees and cut costs, services, and benefits in order to expand profits. Phil Ebersole will review the book and lead a talk. Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!
