I was the CTO and "Holder of the plan" of a company that managed to develop a technology valuable enough to have been bought by a larger company. Or, if you prefer, to be bought by a company in the craze to buy companies.
Any way you look at it we were bought. And, frankly, I am glad of it.
But here is the thing. Once bought the new 'management' went about changing just about everything. How we did things. What we wrote. Whoe was on-time and who was late. Who was "leader" and who were the dregs. Typical big-business bullsh*t.
Hey. I am not complaining. They paid me well.
But I quit. In three months. Why?
Does BONEHEAD ring any bells?
