I do see both sides, but think it is crappy of companies to just pull up and split. However I learned a long time ago to not feel secure. With that said, I put anywhere from 20 to 25% of my check into savings every month. If I don't dip into any of that by years end, I contribute the max allowed by law into my roth account.
It is hard at times, but it has taught me not to be an impulse buyer. Over the years both accounts have grown modestly. Not only do I have an account for the future, but also have one for the present in case of emergency, or for any large purchase I might want to make.
Companies expect us to commit to them, however over the years they have been less committed to us. We are the backbone of the industry.
