can confirm. went to join a former startup right after the acquisition by a big company. it was a complicated product that would have required years of investment to pull off. instead, the company basically killed all the innovation, micromanaged everything, always wanted immediate results and didn't understand the complexity of what we were doing. we were all let go after 2 years and the project was transitioned to another team that had little knowledge about the product. some months later, they acquired our competitor.
