Consider Disrupted by Dan Lyons. Recommended by 3 sources.
“Disrupted is a first-person, often scathing memoir of a journalist thrown into Silicon Valley startup culture. it reads as brisk and anecdote-driven: a steady stream of funny, enraged scenes that map the social rituals of venture-backed companies. Its useful part is its voice — candid, sarcastic, and detail-rich about office absurdities — which makes the culture feel tangible. The main limitation is repetition: a long string of similar incidents and punchlines can flatten into sustained snark and leave readers who want structural analysis wanting.”
