McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski raised concerns about the effects of crime on doing business in Chicago, even as the company announced plans to bring more of its suburban employees downtown.
In a speech to the Economic Club of Chicago Wednesday, Kempczinski referenced the recent departures of high-profile companies such as Caterpillar, Boeing and Citadel from the Chicago area, saying the city needed to “face facts.”
“The fact is that there are fewer large companies headquartered in Chicago this year than last year,” he said.
