The age of unending greed and we are letting it happen Arthur T. Demoulas had run Market Basket, a New England supermarket chain, the way his father had built it: generous profit-sharing for workers, low prices for customers, and a management philosophy that treated warehouse employees by name and remembered their families. He knew cashiers and truck drivers personally. Workers who had been with the company for decades described him as someone who showed up at funerals, called people when their parents were sick, and distributed bonuses that other CEOs would have redirected to shareholders. Market Basket, under his leadership, was profitable. In June 2014, the company's board of directors voted to remove him anyway. . https://ift.tt/SW48vpN
