As an almost FAANG sized company engineer, I stay because I have work to do.

Everyone has work to do.
If you stay once in a while it's ok, shit happen from time time but if you always (or most of the days) stay, then you and your company have a problem: bad management. And that is not solved with overtime.

I stay more than I need to for sure. And I encourage people to leave. I guess I just feel like my employer isn't forcing me, as this title might imply. I know not everyone lives like me so it should definitely raise alarm bells when most people have that work schedule.
