Unprofessional but not uncommon. I've had the misfortune of being called an "ideal employee" at a review only to be lambasted and threatened with legal action after quitting.
- Buttons840 9y agoWhat legal action can the possibly threaten?
- wpietri 9y agoAll sorts. As my first lawyer pointed out to me, just because you will probably win a suit eventually doesn't mean that you'll enjoy the long process or be happy about the money you're spending. If you can even afford to spend it.
- whamlastxmas 9y agoA late response, but the legal action was threatening to sue me for infringement of their intellectual property because my portfolio included projects I worked on there. It was an obvious case of Fair Use, but like the other guy said, suing me would have been pocket change for my employer and devastating for me regardless of who won. So I took down my portfolio.
