At that point, it's better to let the employee go.

Except that seems to be in the minds of a large chunk of FAANG employees... They can't let them all go. So they give payrises instead

It's probably cheaper to give them all pay raises. Even if they all left and started startups there will be 1 or 2 that hit it big and probably eat Google's lunch. That will probably happen anyway by an outsider but the odds are less.
