I think you two are mixing up founders and employees.
It would be immoral for a founder to leave the company to start another one after taking in investors money promising them he will work hard.
It would be immoral for an employee to agree not to take commercial and technological secrets when leaving the company and sign non-compete agreements, and then do exactly that and found a competing company.
It would not be immoral for the employees to leave with a few colleagues to start their own company, but it would be immoral for the founder if the founder were to join them.
It would be immoral for employees to stop attending the office and stay home to work on their own startup while accepting a pay check.
Workers give up control to investors when the investors can give them the certainty of a pay check next month - because having control yourself means you must forgo the certainty of income in the short to medium term. This is valuable to people with debt and no savings (graduates and people with mortgages and families).
Workers don't like to give up control if they don't have to, that's why there is a proliferation of startups in Silicon Valley, and wages for software engineers are very high compared to many other professions.
