When leaders, like yourself, leave a company many will follow. I did this back in 2000. Began consulting & later found out 2/3 of there managers left a week later & over half of the employees. A while later all the top leaders in that company were Federally indicted for most of the reasons I brought up before I left in a managers meeting & then more forcefully in a company wide meeting.

Found out about those indictments years later by a friend who worked there & todl me all about what happened. I had no idea it was such a powerful thing. It just took one guy that many in the company respected waking away to get a large portion to do it as well. I was told that they couldn't train their new hires fast enough to keep up the facade of honoring contracts well enough & that within a year of me leaving & the exodus that they were brought up on federal charges of fraud & a few other issues.

Almost every single employee & manager company that left during that time went on to build successful competitors or businesses that filled the niche for the problems that the previous company created.

I ended up one of 3 odd ducks that went a completely different direction within 5 years & love what I have created, wouldn't change it for anything.

With your work ethic, ability to communicate in a clear respectuful manner, & your willingness to give credit where it is due, you will end up in a better position soon.
