Doesn't scandals such as the Non-poaching case between Apple, Google, Adobe, Intel, etc. reveal that even high-skilled workers aren't immune to the tricks of corporate management?


Well, the point about that scandal was that what Apple, Google and others were doing was illegal.


But since you can't jail a corporation, all it boils down for Apple, Google and others is a simple financial cost/benefit calculation. And I'm not sure if the class action lawsuit tipped the scale towards not doing such things yet.
