About the book
After losing his magazine job at fifty, technology journalist Dan Lyons joins HubSpot as a marketing employee. His memoir recounts the disorienting experience of entering a young, venture-funded startup, where exuberant office rituals and promises of changing the world collide with the realities of selling software. Through his encounters with coworkers and management, Lyons examines age, corporate culture, and the assumptions underlying the startup boom.
