As I said, there is a big difference between people who take a job that is offered (I have been recruited several times while working another job, when the other company contacted me) and people who are spending time looking for a new job
for the express purpose of taking the exit deal offered from the company they are currently working for
In the first case, I would have no problem with an employee leaving for that reason, and may try to give them a better offer in order to keep them. In the second case, I would say good riddance.
