On the plus side, I negotiated to work remotely for a few weeks, due to needing to relocate.

So- I was actually able to work both my current job, and the "new" job without losing time for either job.

So, on the plus side, I didn't lose anything, and got an extra paycheck for a few days. But, man, that would have been really shitty if I had relocated, and THEN got that notification.

As another interesting note, I discovered the other head-dev was only getting compensated 30-40k a year..... for literally managing a world-wide system. He doesn't work there either now.

Did your original contact allow for them to just terminate like that? No minimum?

You know, that got me curious... I went back and found the contract.

#1- There is this questionablly illegal clause in it.

But, yea, absolutely nothing in the contract about this swap-a-roo.
