About half way through the creation of our website, our web developer secretly terminated the four other members who were part of his team, and assigned to help with the building of our site. He did this without once consulting us, or speaking a word about it. Soon after we noticed that progress had slowed substantially. Fast forward about a month and progress has slowed even more, and frustrations are building. He is not communicating with us nearly as much as he has in the past... (he rarely responds to the multiple emails we send him per day). Our site has not changed at all in the past week and a half, seriously. I would say the site is about 80% completed, but we have paid him 90% of what is owed. He complained of lack of funds so we agreed to pay him a little bit ahead of schedule thinking this would motivate him to bust his a$$ from here on out. We told him this.
The main frustration here is the secret termination of his team and lack of communication. I don't know what he does all day. His team was a major factor in our decision to hire this company over others. Now everything is on him solely, and I fear the final product will suffer because of it.
Has anybody else experienced something like this in the past?
