All Work, Some Play, Mad Risk

  • Summary

  • Dot-com companies attracted a lot of people interested in working in exciting new businesses with a start-up mentality. From bike messengers delivering food ordered over the Internet to warehouse workers shipping dog collars across the country, dot-com workers embraced the short-term perks (free food! jeans at the office!) and the potential for big paydays (stock options!). But when the bubble collapsed, many workers were left with nothing but risk.  From Epic Magazine and the Vox Media Podcast Network. Hosted by Julia Furlan. Enjoyed this episode?
