Millions of workers in Australia have just been given the legal right to ignore after-hours demands from their boss—and the development isn’t sitting well with some corporate leaders. In fact, "Shark Tank" star Kevin O’Leary said that the new law makes him “crazy." “It’s so dumb,” the Canadian businessman said on Fox News. “Who dreams this crap up is my question? Why would anyone propose such a stupid idea?” Read more: https://lnkd.in/dDRevBaJ

“With the great outdoors at the core of everything we do, we want to encourage everyone to embrace the Mountain Time mindset." bit.ly/4dK6CfA Whether you’re just planning a quick trip to Colorado, Arizona or Montana or considering a move to that part of the country, Mountain Dew will reward you for doing so. The PepsiCo holding has adopted the Mountain Time Zone as its unofficial time zone of Mountain Dew—and to encourage people to follow in its lead, it’s offering to reimburse up to $10,000 in moving expenses for five people who relocate to anywhere in the time zone. “We want to reward those who take the leap and move to the happiest time zone in the country with their friends by paying for their move," said JP Bittencourt, vice president of marketing at Mountain Dew, in a press release.

Leaving the U.S. might seem like a big leap, but one couple had plenty of practice living abroad. Anna Sosdian and Zach Gerth wanted to start a family but, in addition to real estate prices, they were put off by the cost of child care in the U.S. Soon, they began to dream of moving abroad again, but this time on their own terms, not an employer’s. “The pandemic for a lot of people was a moment of self reflection and wondering what we should be doing now,” says Sosdian. A plan formed: With Sosdian’s background in international HR, they could help other people move abroad, using their own experience as a jumping off point.

A new TikTok trend has people risking prison time for a “free money” hack that is really just run-of-the-mill fraud. bit.ly/47cUcKC In a barrage of videos over Labor Day weekend, social media users were buzzing about the “Chase Bank glitch,” which was supposed to be an easy way to get free cash. A spokesperson for Chase Bank said that was far from the case. “We are aware of this incident, and it has been addressed. Regardless of what you see online, depositing a fraudulent check and withdrawing the funds from your account is fraud, plain and simple,” a Chase spokesperson said in a statement to Fortune.

Stanley 1913 has not only survived the inferno of its viral fame among a younger, more female audience, it’s still in it, according to its president. Matt Navarro says the company has experienced four years of growth so far, and shows no signs of slowing down as the “hydration” industry category as a whole skyrockets across the board. An analyst from research firm Circana tells Fortune the water bottle market has doubled in size over roughly the past 12 months ending in July, and grown by 21% in 2024. Consumer behavior has also changed: People are buying several water bottles rather than just sticking to one. That’s all good news for Stanley. “We’re focused on longevity over short-lived hype,” Navarro tells Fortune. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gy_Tm845

Pleased to share an excerpt from "Shocks, Crises, and False Alarms" published in Fortune today. It's taken from the last chapter that pulls together multiple themes to argue the 2020s will be an "era of tightness" - essentially a much tighter economy than the 2010s, delivering higher but healthy interest rates that will force more-disciplined capital allocation, and facing geopolitical risks that - while menacing - will remain a high bar to derail the macroeconomy. There will be shocks, crises, and false alarms but we expect structural upside in the years ahead. For additional resources on the book (with Paul Swartz) see https://lnkd.in/gQHSCc74 and special thanks to Mohamed El Aassar for including this piece in Fortune. #2020s #macroeconomics #finance #growth Mohamed El Aassar

Founders don't like to talk about the "bad deal." The one with a big number in a headline that's actually a disaster behind the scenes. Gwen Whiting, cofounder of the cleaning brand the Laundress, is talking about her $100 million sale to Unilever now because she wants to warn other founders about what can go wrong. Whiting shared her story with me exclusively for Fortune. She describes spotting red flags immediately after the paperwork was signed in 2019 and watching Unilever's handling of a product recall after buyers of the Laundress's detergents reported rashes and other skin ailments. (Unilever didn't respond to request for comment and Whiting's cofounder declined to comment.) “Technically, financially, I got the good deal. But I got a bad deal for my brand and my community and my partners,” she says. Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/ehKAXwEC Fortune Most Powerful Women #femalefounders
