Some US companies are also like this. I can think of one MAANG right off that behaves this way. If an employee wants to leave, the most common response is for a manager to get very upset, gaslight them, and try to guilt them into staying or that they're somehow a bad employee. It's corporate BS attempting to exploit the views and vulnerabilities of well-meaning honest employees with deceptive emotional manipulation.
