Debatable without an employment agreement. For all we know the company hired the primary developer as an independent contractor. The tweet references an email demanding the signing of an employment agreement after the fact. That itself is shady and can only enhance distrust. What they need is a dissolution agreement, not an employment agreement.

Further complicating it, Micay says the code is licensed non-commercial. So how can the company commercially exploit that code anyway? I'd be suspicious of any after the fact employment agreement attempting to coerce a re-licensing permitting commercial usage.
