The article does not say what they could do to prevent conscription, or if they can do anything in the first place.

Besides, them not pulling out is really not as consequential as it might seem. The Russian government has taken over many of the brands that have pulled out with the consequence that even more of the earnings of the factories in question go to the government. So, while I agree that them staying shows greed, it would not change shit if they left.
