      I believe it when they call it golden handcuffs. You’d be giving up an astronomically high salary for potentially long-term unemployment in a recession economy

        Golden handcuffs are typically stock awards that take several years to become fully vested (so for a 5 in year vesting periods you receive 1/5 of the award per year). So quitting means leaving a big chunk of money in stocks.
