The arguments used in that post are nonsense. If employees are mass leaving a company in a short time, which explanation do you think is more likely, that all the employees collectively discovered that the salary level and cultural environment are not appealing in Estonia and Finland (the management explanation) or perhaps there is something toxic happening behind the scenes? As far as Mia, that is the problem that most insiders point to. You can't brush off Lappi's leaving like that either. His second half of 2018 was brilliant and yet he left it behind for an underperforming C3. I don't think Ogier will dive head first into that mess either. Lappi is his teammate and Tänak is his friend. He can ask TGR anything in the negotiations, because he has options and they don't. TGR had one job - keep Tänak and they bombed it.
