This book is a critique of how Silicon Valley's management fads, like "hustle culture," "disruption," and "team-building" exercises, have spread to other industries, creating a toxic and dehumanizing work environment for employees. The author argues that these practices, often disguised as innovation and wellness, have eroded the traditional social contract between employers and employees, leading to constant change, surveillance, and a focus on short-term metrics over human well-being. The book is a humorous yet harrowing exposé that calls for a return to more humane and sustainable business models. A clean very presentable copy. Signed by Author(s).
