Yep, completely agree. You'd also have to convince me that this doesn't have unintended consequences as well if HR suddenly reaches out to you with a message around them being concerned you'd leave, but you have no idea why. "Wait... Why should I want to leave? Is there something I'm missing out on that I'm not aware of?" There's also an immediate extension of this where they do begin to snoop on email and communications between employees to try to measure this. While IBM clarifies that they don't do this today, it's in people operation's incentives to begin to do this if it improves the metrics they're assessed against.
