Former Uber employee Susan Fowler released a book this week about her time at the company, titled "Whistleblower: My Journey to Silicon Valley and Fight for Justice at Uber."
Fowler wrote a blog post in 2017 outlining the sexual harassment she experienced at the company. The post drew widespread attention to Uber's workplace culture, a development that played a role in the replacement of Travis Kalanick, an Uber co-founder and former CEO, with current CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, who has made reforming Uber's culture a priority.
In her book, Fowler described early warning signs about Uber's culture she noticed during the interview process and her first days on the job: a reference from a recruiter to a "crazy" company trip in Las Vegas, the lack of women at Uber's office, and a troubling orientation exercise.
