I wanted to add another note to those that might be in middle management or otherwise have "corporate responsibility" feelings. I have worked at a number of organizations with bosses that I have genuinely liked and that have gone out of their way to make sure that employees are doing well - but this kindness is utterly optional and there is no obligation for two-way kindness. Any obligations you feel to keep your company healthy should be tied to your own interests - your continued employment and any active options/interest in the company you have. Promises of future rewards are entirely vaporware until realized and if you hit a really tough personal period the company won't think twice about letting you go so be conservative about how much of your life you're willing to spend bettering a company that could fire you tomorrow.
That all said, don't be a dick about it.
