Given poor enough methods there is no way a person can be replaced in a week. Even in good environments new people are net negative for a period depending on the project complexity.

Not to argue, but I my company specializes in cases exactly like this. I can go into a company, especially a small one like this, and have their entire business process mapped in three days. I can have a full infrastructure analysis done one week later.

Any written code can be worked through and corrected (by a fast-response team if necessary).

Again, programmers need to stop thinking that they are irreplaceable.

I'll probably end up sticking it out. CEO notwithstanding, I have good relationships with everyone else on the team and do have a concern for their welfare.

But then Micro$oft could be tempting...
