So would it be fair to say that staff are more upset at not being able to work for VM anymore, rather than the actual loss of their job (as there are many alternatives available)?

Even if this is the case, it can be a bit of a disruption eg having to learn new processes, get to know new people etc.

Are incentive payments* being offered for staff to stay until the end, or is it just winding down naturally?

*Many employers offer this to prevent staff finding other jobs and leaving before a workplace is due to close, which causes operational difficulties. Obviously, employees want something in return to stop them "jumping ship" too early to secure their own future.
