* The Slack is under the company's control, and potential monitoring and retention? Over the life of someone no longer with the company?

* Was there any sour grapes in the Slack channel? Or was it a bummer or distraction for remaining employees?

* Did the Slack actually help the employees readjust and refocus on their new job search?

* Why not encourage people to say goodbyes and exchange contact info, and pay for a job search coaching service (with no reporting back to the company)?
