1.) Unbabel is a YC company that recently raised 1.5M
2.) Andreas is a contractor that was given a 3-month at-will contract, for a job that required him to move to Portugal from Sweden.
3.) He worked for 1 month and then was let go and given pay for 1.5 months.
4.) He managed to lose all his money that he made while working for Unbabel, due to a 4 month rental agreement that Unbabel helped him secure a week before Unbabel fired him.
I am not sure if the founders are psychopaths, but there are clearly psychopathic behaviors here. Here's an employee that put his trust into the company to move and sign a contract he couldn't understand, and the company did the following things:
1.) Could not even pay out 1.5 month of contract left (after raising 1.5M)
2.) Could not handle the rental situation
3.) Could not help this guy land on his feet
4.) Could not apologize to Andreas after the article has posted, or manage to help compensate
5.) Continues to answer with posts that try to emphasize how great it is to work for the company or work in Portugal
If this wasn't a YC company we would be alot harder on the company.
