Insider Finance - Business - Trending Insider stories for you

Hello again, Insiders!

In the last month, we’ve covered booming companies that went bust, profiled one of Hollywood’s titan managers, and explored one of corporate America’s most insidious problems: burnout.

Take a look at what you may have missed:

Glossier, known for its baby-pink aesthetic and cult following of 20- and 30-somethings, was an overnight phenomenon. But 17 former employees said behind the company's financial success was a sometimes chaotic and unstable work environment — and that founder Emily Weiss’s obsession with transforming the brand into a tech company sparked internal tensions.

What happened at Glossier.

Scooter Braun, the 40-year-old music manager best known for discovering Justin Bieber and beefing with Taylor Swift, presents himself as the consummate good guy. But some critics say he's burned a lot of bridges in building his empire, and conversations with entertainment insiders suggest there are many sides to the mega-manager.

A year after January 6, 2021, the potential for another violent political uprising in America is all too real. It's impossible to say whether America's deepening and violent political divisions will lead to a full-scale war. But it's not difficult to pinpoint the states and regions where one would be most likely to begin — from Michigan to eastern Oregon.

See where a second civil war could start.

After years of overachieving and feeling exploited by employers — the late nights, the lost weekends — many workers are starting to take it easy. And instead of quitting to find a new, easier job, they’re just coasting at their current job — or “quitting in place.”

Hustle culture is out. Coasting culture is in.

A pastor in Memphis was told his daughter had been kidnapped. A man in Miami thought his wife and baby daughter were being held for ransom. A guy in Missouri was conned into thinking his elderly mother had been taken. Criminals are staging devious hustles known as “virtual kidnappings,” scamming families out of millions of dollars — and the FBI is stumped.

Inside the “explosion” of virtual kidnappings.
