I can't speak for the aardvark team but I would feel devastated having in so many years of hard work only to see my baby being terminated, not because it's a bad product but simply because it doesn't fit the broader vision of the company that acquired you. Not sure I could stay at a place like that.
- dhimes 15y agoAgreed. Why the hell buy it in the first place? Maybe they wanted some of the IP to use somewhere else or something? It doesn't smell good to me. Are we still saying 'Do no evil?'

- dhimes 15y agoBut don't you find it odd? It's too much to pay for just a talent acquisition. IP + talent, perhaps, if it's really important IP.
