He was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in college, but didn't get adequate treatment until 2016 .

Dunn says the manic state of hypomania could be conducive to running a startup.

Bonobos founder David Dunn says he's open with job candidates about what the work will entail.

Dunn : "In return, you're going to get two awesome things. One , you’re going to learn more and grow more and develop more. Two , you've got equity," he said.
