You have this problem of exiling people in-place because the labor regulations make it absurdly difficult to fire people. You see the same thing in school department "rubber rooms" or union shops that tell the useless guys to go count bolts and stay out of the way.
It's better for everyone if you can just shitcan people when things aren't working out.
Well, this would make (some) sense if actually firing someone was nigh-impossible. But in France, it's actually not that hard. You just have to explicitly tell them why, fill a few forms and pay the severance package.
