Occam's Razor is not an appropriate tool to make the point you are trying to make.

[colordrops]

Not sure why you are getting down voted. Occam's Razor is heavily abused and misused in the majority of cases, treating it like some axiomatic mathematical principle and misapplying it to human behavior.

Yeah, this is exactly right:

1) Employees left for ideological reasons.

2) Employees left out of self interest.

There are reasons I believe it’s predominantly 1, but neither explanation is more convoluted. Misuse of an excellent thinking tool.

Those aren’t actually alternative explanation; values define self interest, they aren’t orthogonal to it.
