I don't agree. For one thing, there are notice periods. You might not consider them material in this context, but sometimes they can be. For example, a rapid change in working conditions or in the purchasing power of wages.

Notice periods are custom, not requirement. You are free to stop showing up at any time if your employer starts giving you a bad deal.

It's hard to make an argument that you owe them notice if they didn't give notice of a significant change in working conditions.

I believe notice periods are legally binding in my jurisdiction, and I'm not at all sure that everything I consider worse working conditions would absolve me of that obligation.
