Organizational support improves worker retention. In K-12 education, teacher crowdfunding platforms bridge resource gaps. We analyze teachers' actions on DonorsChoose and employment data. Crowdfunding reduces attrition rates by 1.7 pp, benefiting projects that personalize classrooms and teaching pedagogy. Identity-relevant resources decrease school and system exit by 1.8-2.4 pp. Findings highlight the role of accessible resources in enhancing worker retention.

AVs revolutionize transportation, but cost barriers persist. Open platforms with human drivers aid deployment. Incentive alignment in the supply chain is vital. We analyze the game involving platforms, AV suppliers, and contractors. Underutilization risk affects profit. Contracting solutions align the chain, ensuring half of optimal profit. Misalignment hampers AV adoption. Contracts mitigate efficiency loss.

Algorithms control pricing and match customers and workers in the gig economy. However, algorithms face several critiques: they lack transparency, can be biased, and can be inefficient. We empirically analyze these issues and show that algorithms lose efficiency from two sources: competition between platforms and misaligned worker incentives. We model workers' strategic responses to variation in pricing and estimate counterfactuals on the effects of minimum wage and transparent pricing policies.
