I was hired onto a project like this. Had to sign an NDA and we were completely separate from the rest of the company, slack email etc. People weren’t allowed to interact with us unless they signed the NDA also, most of the company didn’t even know we existed.
We were actually architecting an alternative to something a third party was providing internally, and had to be super secret cause of the contract.
So I guess it depends how much you like your job. The market sucks right now and there’s no guarantee you won’t leave and be laid off from your new job elsewhere. I would stick around cause it’s less effort til I find out what the deal is. It’s not like they are gonna be able to cut over the entire backend suddenly if that’s what they are doing. But be saving money in the meantime.
