While I agree with that, the problem is that their employees may not be optimistic about their job prospects once they leave so it’s understandable why some would hope to keep their job instead. A severance package sounds great if you can find employment elsewhere, but if you can’t and you don’t have a very large safety net to sustain longterm unemployed it isn’t such a great thing.
