The prime responsibility to "stop Rick from becoming Rick" was Rick's. Employers are not parents.

"Rick" isn't solely a description of him, it's a description of his relationship and interaction with his colleagues; it's a manager's job to consider that and work with him to keep it from becoming catastrophically pathological

I have a hard time countenancing a "manager" who admits to dumping the load on a man and then takes to Medium to crap on him in public.

Agreed that mgmt never should have let things get to point where a lot of $$$ was wasted. But responsibility for being a dick is the dick's.

Note: this a side of the story so eager to take down of a former colleague it blurts out embarrassingly revealing things about itself.

Could be Rick was a pleasant guy. Could be the author is making up a bunch of crap in a shoddy act of backbiting. One thing's for sure...
-
...it'll be a cold day in hell before I ever work with someone like this author. That's based on his published account of his own actions.
