I think I generalised it correctly. I agree with this point - that it's often not the most profitable to suck your employees dry, as you say.
Your employer is not on your side, even if your goals temporarily align with their long term vision. That is almost the best you can hope for in employment.
If business has a time of crisis, for whatever reason, then it becomes a risk-minimising strategy to exploit staff - at least until the crisis is over or the business collapses.
