I worked for a company, that in retrospect, was Evil. While working there, you couldn’t tell at all. Everything seemed decent, the product wasn’t too bad. Then, one day you get let go for reasons they can’t tell you. They literally do all the things HR told you they would never do, give you a fistful of money to ignore the contract you each signed.
Once you stop and realize it, they break employment and immigration laws all over the place. Meanwhile, you’re in a foreign country, trying to find a new job as quickly as possible. Then you happen to run into users who loath the product you used to work on during interviews and you find out the company you worked for is universally hated.
I wouldn’t call the people in the company toxic, but the company itself is toxic. Being let go was probably the best thing that ever happened to me, but damn. Never again.
