Bully Market

Perfectly mirrors my own experience - the biggest tragedy is that the business suffers because they don’t monitor this kind of behaviour - and really, it’s abuse.

This is an incredibly powerful and moving account of the toxic culture that can persist in the corporate world (and Wall Street in particular). The author is gut-wrenchingly open and honest, readily admitting her faults and mistakes. The sanctimonious overtones that have ruined so many memoirs for me is nowhere to be seen here. Instead, you have here a vividly credible story of a young woman struggling to succeed in a virulent environment and is forced to sacrifice her personal values in order to survive. Thankfully, she does not succumb to the "vampire squid" and instead finds the strength and courage to leave the firm and go public with her story. True bravery on so many levels.While, as a white man, I have not faced the misogynistic harassment that the author did, I too was caught in the trap of sacrificing personal values and health to fit into an avaricious culture. The danger is all too real.

Well written account of Jamie’s time at Goldman. Her honesty of her own shortcomings made this book real and not look how great I did while I was there.I hope we see a sequel of life as a stay at home mom is n 2035!

As a retired investment banker I was interested to read this book but actually found it pretty tedious, self serving and quite short on detail. Having spent a life on trading floors it would appear that the authors was quite mild

I’ve got to be honest: this book is a tough read. And by tough, I mean that in the best way. It is infuriating, inspiring, heartfelt, vulnerable, and eye-opening. The author is such a good writer in addition to her stories being insane.What I really loved about the book was that she didn’t complain or whine about her problems… instead, she talked about how she **became** a part of the problem. The fact that she is so brave to go against such a MASSIVE financial institution that runs a large part of the world, is mindblowing.This book made me laugh, cry, laugh, and cry again. It’s a must read for everyone. I couldn’t put it down. I finished it in a day! Now I just wish I was a part of a book club that read this together so I could talk about it with someone! 😊🤯
