I don't understand the logic in firing you though. Wouldn't it make sense to keep you for however little time longer they could? Knowing that you would be quitting soon they could try to get knowledge out of you or have you help train a replacement.
And if they knew that you were going to get an offer they couldn't match, then obviously you were worth more than what they were paying you. In other words, a great deal for them. Why would they cut that any shorter than they had to?
Was it just good old fashioned spite, cutting off their own nose?
- withinboredom 7y agoI didn't mention timelines. My wife and I put two and two together and realized they must have known at least a month before they fired me, and aligned with when they suddenly asked me to document a bunch of things I had built -- and focus on fixing even the smallest bugs in them. Once all that was done, I was fired. Exactly one week before I would have put in my notice.
