Thank you for sharing your feedback about Crown. The best suggestions for improvement always come from those who have firsthand experience. I must start by apologizing for offering such a delayed response here. I appreciate you letting us know that our reputation in MA and NH is very good. Over the past few years we have worked hard to increase our visibility in CT and continue to do so.
You are also quite correct that relationships within the sales department should never be adversarial and I am sincerely sorry that you found it to be otherwise. Crown works hard to foster a team environment where managers and sales representatives have open and supportive communication. We want each of our employees to succeed and be happy in their positions and to have the tools and training that make that possible.
We also encourage all employees to bring concerns and suggestions like this forward at the time they are experienced. Timely feedback can help us to develop new programs and /or adjust existing ones. I hope that this open door policy is becoming more widely practiced at Crown today, so that we can work with our employees to address concerns before they become unhappy in their jobs.
Thank you again for your feedback and we wish you well.

Great quality linen, and good customer service. The Owner and his sons are very nice people.
Cons
Due to upper managements bonus program, necessities are not bought because it comes out of their pockets. The company discriminates against women, and certain minorities. The pay is poor. Women who worked at the factories for 25 years earn on average $9-$10. I have worked for the company for over 10 years and still have trouble affording the health insurance.
