I don't think your retaliatory 'disagree' is truly linguistically justified. This is certainly one possible valid term, though I do think the other suggestions are better, of course.

Thanks, B! Given the specific context, I think this is more to do with staying with the same employer, rather than a wider context.
neutral Daryo : maybe a too narrow view; could well be about other prospective jobs, or simply prospects in life in general.

neutral Daryo : very plausible option. BUT "S'agissant d'abus sexuels …."? What makes you assume it's the ONLY possible reason? Could as well be the case of someone refusing to be overworked to the point of exhaustion? Or subjected to bullying, or nitpicking?
