The book was awful in all the right ways. It was a perfect example of SV employees "going native" and surrendering their entire sense of self worth over to the desires of their employer. It tracked the ways startups indoctrinate naive employees into to their cults of personality pretty accurately. Company as Godhead. If the protagonist drank any more koolaid she would have become the koolaid man herself. After all, without that external sense of approval, you are worthless.
