I wonder how much $$ the severance package provides. That could be
considered a 'Retainer' for 2 years. So, they are not providing the
support 'without pay'.
And, if an employee decides to quit talking to the bank after 10 or 20
hours, what can the bank do? Any judge would consider that the
ex-employee was working in "good faith" and that the bank was not.

Y'know, sometimes you have really bad broken URLs. Repaired (I think):

But the article describes only the quid, not the quo of the quid-pro-quo.
If the employees dislike the offer, they're free to leave with no severance
compensation. Not that they're likely to relish the prospect.
