You are learning an important lesson the hard way.

Never be loyal to a corporation. Corporations are not loyal to you (or other employees) in spite of how it may seem sometimes. How could they be loyal? They are not human.

I first heard this from a CTO at my first dev job when he was encouraging me to come along with an upcoming merger. I said something like "well I want to be loyal to company..." he immediately cut me off and said "never be loyal to a company -- a company will not be loyal to you." (paraphrasing)

Since then, I have witnessed his assertion come true many times.

Save your loyalty for people. We would like to think that the bonds made with teammates will be shared by the company, they won't.
