There are no more bridges to burn - it's only me and one other developer. By "toxic" I mean that the "interim" CEO, who was not selected to be the CEO, is now ramping up rhetoric that puts the blame for his bad decisions soundly on me. I know the score - whether I leave now or in two weeks, every bug, design flaw, or bad business decision relating to the software will be my fault. I don't want to play into that any longer. It feels like staying in the house with an ex after the relationship has ended.
- bigiain 7y agoYep. Get out. Sooner rather than later. Like today - just pack up your stuff and walk out. Interim CEO isn't going to talk any nicer about you if you spend any more time there... Go sit in a cafe, or the park, or in a bar, or by a river. Way better use of your time than getting blamed for shit at work...
- potta_coffee 7y agoThe end of the story: I received an offer, accepted, and ducked out. My rival was as happy to see me go as I was to leave.
