I just quit my job!
The company I worked for is a small company founded in Jan of this year and I was there since the early days but wasn't a founder nor a partner.
It was me who decided on which tech stack we should use, which languages, what servers to use, best practices and almost anything related to development. I was the lead developer and project manager for the biggest project they had.
But they decided that I don't deserve to be a partner. I was making more than 50,000 SDG per month for the company but only paid 6,000. The worst thing is that the partners don't know shit about software development. They have no vision for where should the company be in the future.
I just had enough. I already had my own software dev business before joining them, and it was successful.
I am going back to building my own company with my own vision.
I know I made the right decision, but it still hurts leaving a company after u made it what it is today. It is like your own baby and you are abandoning it.
Hopefully, it is for the best.

    Good choice.

    Screw losers builiding success on top of their underpaid workers - let them vanish into nothingness or rebranch.

    I heard selling scented candles is profitable nowadays.

    It kinda looks like my story. I'm in a company since Jan, keeping and maintaining all the infrastructure. Some times I work more than 13h a day just to get a fucking legacy system properly working.
    But they never actually listen to me. I always said that buying a 10-year-old ecommerce platform wasn't a good idea, but they never really cared.
    Now, business are bad, we can't trust the platform at all, and they say this is MY fault and I MUST work to get it working, no matter how long it takes.
    Serious, man, this isn't worth 905 USD a month

    Some on my side, left a startup where i was lead-dev.

    here in germany we say:
    rather an end with horror than a horror without end

    it's not worth sacrificing yourself and your mental health to make others look good
