you are a person with integrity who takes pride in his/her work and wants to see it through, morally, you want to see them launch successfully, but legally you have no obligation. i suggest you just detach and start at the new place. the ex-company should of done things to try and keep you earlier, seems kind of like a drowning person holding onto anything, even at the expense if someone rlse's life. alternatively, perhaps you still feel there's hope for this product or company, that i think you need to sort out, but if it's the former, take off, you've already given them more than you deserve.
- cestith 10y agoWhat's the moral imperative to brush off the new employer on behalf of someone who made the situation worse than it had to be the first place? I think it's more sentimentality wanting to stick around than morality. Moral justice is done by doing what OP's already told both parties.
