[en] The analysis of one million written reviews and ve million quantitative ratings shows that employees
dislike ownership changes, and more so when their company goes under private equity
ownership. With private equity, there are less complaints about ine ciencies and more complaints
about management attitude towards other employees, which exacerbates a pre-existing welfare gap

sponsors specializing in Tech-Buyouts have negative ratings across their companies; showing
heterogeneity of management practices across sponsors.
