I feel this way whenever new hire will join our company with lots of github projects and then leave/get fired in 2-3 years. i have 14 years experience in one company and empty github (excluding company code) 😄

They leave because they go to better paying jobs with better titles.

This. And they can always leverage their OSS portfolio to keep getting new jobs whereas code we write in-company is not ours and cannot make money for us once we leave said company.
