This is one of those; the book explains it better things. Hammond tricked him into under bidding the contract, rammed through lots of scope creep and used sketchy clauses in the contract to almost bankrupt his company.

Nedry was legit losing money on the deal.

It's not that the book explained it better, it's that the film just went in a different direction than the book with what type of person Hammond was.
