I'm flummoxed by the comments here, and why is this flagged? The article couldn't be clearer:
Startup had a product. Revenue was going down, headcount was already brought to a bare minimum. Startup started to prepare to exit and return remaining funds to investors. Game over.
Instead, investors talked startup leadership into firing nearly everyone still around working on the product and pivot to using a vibe-coded SaaS for the basis of its product. All signs point to this being a poor-quality, faulty, quite possibly illegal product as a result, but do leadership & investors care? Seems not.
OP is going to aid in the migration (my question: WTF?) and then leave.
My commentary: our industry is so fscked, and a hearty two-finger salute to every software engineer who told me in 2023 that AI wasn't going to replace humans, the humans who use AI are going to replace humans. Lol, lol, and again I say, lol.
