"Senior" doesn't even mean the same thing from tech company to tech company. Couple that with misleading job postings and responses to question in the interview process and you're almost flipping a coin with the kind of employee experience you'll actually be getting for a role.

This is not how top tech companies think, and it’s the reason that the average job duration is so short at the top of the industry. It’s not viewed through some sour grape lens of “if I can’t have them for 10 years, I don’t want them!” It’s, if they work at least a year, it will be a great opportunity to build cool stuff for however long they are around.
What you’re saying might be true for some senior management side things where long-time relationships are more important, but it’s not for people who want to be highly ranked ICs.
