A little bit Wolf of Wall Street, a little bit Get Out. This is a POWERFUL story. The first half of the story is incredibly confronting in terms of racism in the work place, and there were some moments I had to step away and take a breath. That’s my privilege in being able to take a break from the discomfort, being a white person. That being said, I also found the cult-ish workplace so relatable as someone who spent almost ten years in a crazy sales company.

I truly loved this story, it had heart, passion, hatred and was just SO SO addictive.
