This is just false. People can be stuck at a company for a variety of reasons.

Obviously there are many situations, but I think many people can be selective about where they work.
Because recruiters can't tell the difference.
Most people know me from furry events or furry writer Telegram groups. :)
I think this highlights a distinction between "the career engineer" and "the expert engineer". The former treats their career as a profession (invests in progression) while the latter masters their craft.
Skill alone does not dictate trajectory; the career engineer intentionally charts their course forward.
Edit: Unless one finds themself forcefully bound and therefore literally stuck.
