MrBeast is one of the biggest content creators on YouTube, with over 105 million subscribers. So, he needs to keep working on exciting videos to offer to his vast audience. But the scale of his videos is no joke, so he needs a team of around 60 people working with him on the videos.

Jimmy Donaldson is known for his giving nature. He has hosted many grand giveaways, where he gave away exotic items like Lamborghini to a probate island. Further, he does so many philanthropic acts. Despite these generous acts, the YouTuber was once accused of ill-treating his employees and creating a toxic workplace.
