Oh sure they can. Is it based on individual two factor authentication though, so a laptop for someone who was dismissed can’t be unlocked? I would assume that’s the issue for the M1 and newer laptops with fingerprint scanners. Can’t invite fired employees back to unlock, or remote employees, not worth the cost. They should resell them, but most won’t and in fact will pay to get rid of them securely, and to avoid corruption of an in-house team handling merchandise, basically.

No. It’s not. Enterprise MDM activation lock and personal activation lock are two different things. This is really blown out of proportion. Apple added a much needed feature. And there is documentation of it. A lot of documentation. And people and companies are either choosing not to turn off the lock are too lazy or too stupid.
