As always, the people with the most options and who are most in demand will be the ones to leave first. I've seen this firsthand.

Then you're left with the worst people, people who are unhappy but stuck, and people who just can't be bothered to do anything about it.

Sounds like a great recipe for productivity! I love working with my fellow cage-mates.

The least talented people will likely stick around because finding alternative employment is more challenging for them. That's disastrous for morale.

At some point, nobody will care or only the people that won't bother doing anything about it will care.

I don't think morale is the right metric to use here.
