In her new novel published on Medium, Jessica Powell, who was a close adviser to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, takes a satirical look at Silicon Valley and the tech behemoths trying to expand their power.
Anahata sounds like any other Silicon Valley company in this era—female employees are outnumbered and feel out of place, mid-level executives are all plotting against each other, and the yoga-loving, sex-obsessed CEO dreams about colonizing the moon. It’s the subject of a new novel published on Medium today by Jessica Powell, The Big Disruption, a satire on the tech sector that explores how far these giant companies will go to wield power over all of us.
