It wasn't a clear end in sight, there was still lots of content and systems that needed to be ported over to the new system, a new payment system to be integrated, and other new features they needed. They had two developers who were familiar with the new website, me and another dev. I did kind of suspect that something like this was possible, but I didn't think they would be dumb enough to actually do it. It turns out, they were dumb enough to do it.

They were just really cheap, and I was most likely their highest paid developer on my team, and myself and another dev were replaced by friends of manager that laid me off.

After that manager laid me off, I asked for a reference or a letter of recommendation, and was ghosted entirely. It happens.
