I don't get the "force employees to resign" meme. I resigned from my last job because aspects of it were shitty. But my employer wanted me to continue working there. We could negotiate some things but not others and eventually the incompatibility became too much. I think I'm more effective at my job in certain conditions, they disagree. I don't get the histrionics and accusations about an employer's intentions. At a certain point it's an important adult thing to be able to recognize you're just in disagreement with another party over something subjective, and you're not being victimized.
