With Tyson leaving Chicago, the city has now lost several large and small businesses in what may be a symptom of its growing rates of crime, experts say.
"What happened eventually is we said enough is enough," Rabine said. "We stopped doing work down there, we stopped doing work for the gas company, the electric company, the south side, the west side and eventually all over Chicago. Those companies now work in other places. They work over the border in Wisconsin, the outer suburbs of Chicago, where they feel safer."
has defended the city in the wake of the exodus, arguing business leaders such as Kempczinski don't have a firm understanding of the situation.I think what would have been helpful is for the McDonald's CEO to educate himself before he spoke," the Chicago Democrat told reporters last month, pointing to a letter from World Business Chicago President Michael Fassnacht that she argued "lays out in exact detail all the good news, economic news, about what’s happening in our city.
Bringing our talented corporate team members and businesses together under one roof unlocks greater opportunities to share perspectives and ideas, while also enabling us to act quickly to solve problems and provide the innovative products and solutions that our customers deserve and value," Tyson CEO Donnie King said in a release announcing the decision, pointing out that the employees would be moving to the company's global headquarters in Arkansas.
Nevertheless, Rabine argued the city will continue to lose businesses as they have a difficult time attracting talent to a city plagued by violence."If you want a great culture in your company you have to have people that love being on the team and they don't want to live in a violent area," Rabine said.
