Review of 'Disrupted: My Misadventure in the Start-Up Bubble' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I checked the audiobook version of this from the library, as I recognized this from a few years back. I enjoyed parts of it, particularly his description of the disconnect from the jargon and new economy boosterism of the executives from the reality of the actual revenue generation and management. The discussion of the age/culture issues between the author and his work colleagues was a little more iffy.
I'm much closer to the author's age and could definitely identify with his discomfort and missteps with a group that's close to half his age, you could also see that his satire/journalism background was even more of an issue. The sections on the problems of Silicon Valley companies and their venture capitalist enablers are more depressing than funny.
