'Undercover Boss': What Really Happened To 'Epic Employees'

Updated

Both faithful and skeptical viewers of CBS' "Undercover Boss" series might wonder what happens after workers and the CEOs appear on show. Does anything really change? Were they really glad that they appeared on the show? As it wrapped up its fourth season on Friday, CBS aired a special "Epic Employees" episode, and the answer seemed to be an unequivocal yes.

Modell's CEO Mitch Modell gave a surprise visit to one of his employees, Angel, and came bearing gifts: Brand new mattresses for her, her two daughters, her husband and the baby she is expecting. The visit, of course, was made to a house that Modell himself made possible; earlier in the season, Modell found out that Angel had been living in a homeless shelter for two years, so he gave her $250,000 so that she could move her family into a new home. (He also promoted her during her first appearance from her job as a sales associate to her new position as an assistant store manager.)
