Mike Isaac on Uber, Corporate Greed and the Gig Economy
Mike Isaac has been covering Uber for years. His book "Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber" presents the dramatic rise and fall of a start-up that came to symbolize everything wrong with Silicon Valley. Though the current CEO has enacted wide reforms in the company, Isaac tells Hari Sreenivasan why Uber should be a cautionary tale for corporate greed and the limits of the gig economy.
