Your violence comment is totally irrelevant. If you thought going to work at Uber was going to be normal-ish, then you just didn't do your homework. That's on you. No reason we should make policy to protect people who won't do basic research. You cite financial considerations, but again, these people are getting paid huge amounts of money. Unless you consider golden handcuffs to be a financial consideration that would prevent someone from leaving, that just doesn't apply here. That's the point - the tradeoff they're making enables them to leave whenever they want.

First, take a deep breath. This knee-jerk reactions do not help the conversation. I wrote "Extremes and provocative-examples aside". People do not leave abusive situations for a variety of reasons, some of which I cite in my comment. I did not work for Uber, despite receiving a decent offer (a 4-yr package that given the current Uber valuation would have been worth between 1.5 and 2 million USD) 3 years ago.
