That's the fun thing though: if the only way to extract a COLA is by switching jobs, then employers have made the workplace so unfulfilling both intellectually and financially that employees have no problem doing so, which raises the costs of hiring employees.

When employee leaves, they try to push his work on other employees, which mostly accept that. So they save money in that case. But, it business grows or enough employees leave, they simply invest in headhunters, which search for candidates. This happen 2 or 3 quarters later and also is booked on different internal account. In meantime, they save money. Easy calcualtion. Been there, saw that.
