I mean this is sort of how things already work, so much so that the trope of "the old devs didn't know shit" and memes about needing to replace everything or crapping on legacy code when starting a new job is talked about daily among devs.
I'm not really worried about what other people do because when I have to fix it, I'll be being paid to, and so would the next guy after me.
If companies don't feel responsible for treating employees well/not turning their backs on them in the sake of profit then I feel 0 responsibility for anything I leave behind when I'm gone.

Sounds like the solution is to look for a good company—they do exist—not sabotage the current one.
