Our company was bought out by a competitor. Some people were let go and others were made offers.
Everyone who came over immediately saw how shitty it was going to be. There was a culture of arrogance there from day 1. People who were managers with supervisory authority lost all their direct reports and were made understudies to the new company's existing staff. There were not given official job titles or descriptions. Projects were put on hold. Policies that have been in place for years were being audited by people who knew nothing about our software. They were kept out of important meetings. The meetings they were invited to seemed to serve no purpose and mostly consisted of the new company's staff bragging about what a great play it was to buy us out. It was obvious that they were only keeping us on to train their employees how to do our jobs and then fire us later.
So people have been quitting, and the company has been bullying those who remain behind over it. “People wanna leave? Fine, you don't have to stay if you don't wanna be here!” boss said in a meeting. Thanks asshole, but we do not need your permission if we want to find another place to work.
