While I agree that there are lots of problems around security communication, I don't feel like the number of CVEs fixed is a good proxy for bad security, I would assume it's more the opposite. Like the more incident reports an airline company has, the safer it tends to be - the unsafe ones don't care to file them.
You are free to choose opening a consultancy yourself and take on the salary risk as well as reap the rewards.
Companies also currently aren't completely banned from firing people. If and when they do, it can look like you described, with adequate notice and compensation.
You are thinking of the continuity of work, colleagues, and responsibilities. Those are of course good to have, especially from the perspective of the company.
But from the perspective of the individual worker, a much more important continuity is the one of salary, insurance, and pension. This is the stability that the employee continues getting at Company D.
I spent too long writing this so I might as well submit it here. It's about a weird Firefox? Fedora? AMD? performance regression, but actually not really as it's about Go image encoder file size & latency.
