uncorn.conf is

listen "unix:/var/run/unicorn.sock"

user "rails"
working_directory "/home/rails/company_startup"
pid "/var/run/unicorn.pid"
stderr_path "/var/log/unicorn/unicorn.log"
stdout_path "/var/log/unicorn/unicorn.log"

nginx is

upstream app_server {
server unix:/var/run/unicorn.sock fail_timeout=0;
}

server {
listen   80;

According to the unicorn documentation, I think you should remove the unix part from the listen method in the configuration and change it to listen "/var/run/unicorn.sock".

listen 3000 # listen to port 3000 on all TCP interfaces
listen "127.0.0.1:3000"  # listen to port 3000 on the loopback interface
listen "/path/to/.unicorn.sock" # listen on the given Unix domain socket
listen "[::1]:3000" # listen to port 3000 on the IPv6 loopback interface
