False dichotomy. You don't need to quit your job to work to change the status quo. Indeed, you can often effect change much better from inside an important organization than from outside it.

Please - cash your big checks built on the back of misery and then complain to the company about their violent attacks on your "physical security".

You don't need to change your job - but if you are getting paid very well to do a job, then posting long internet postings about how terrible it is to work at an "important organization" risks getting you some eye-rolls.

You're attacking a strawman. The people trying to effect change aren't merely complaining online. There has been substantial real organizing afoot.
