Going to McCann is nothing but a money and ego move for the partners. It has nothing to do with Peggy, Stan, Meredith, or any other worker in the office.
I think Weiner is showing us that there's nothing redeemable about our main characters. They're all alone in their greed. All of the fun they've had banging women, drinking, landing accounts, and making business decisions has all been done in the name of quenching a selfish thirst.
It's capitalism at its worst.
In this instance, what choice did they have? They actually did try to keep it.

None, but they gave up their choice last season when they cashed out. All because Roger needed to win his dick-measuring contest with Jim Cutler.

They tried to save SCP until they were shown the diamonds. They were going to remain an autonomous office with smaller clients out in California. Much like was done in earlier seasons, they would have pulled in some clients of their own for a few years and then once the McCann contract was complete, they would probably pull out and go back to being just SCP and thrive on the West Coast.
But instead, Don could have Coca Cola and Roger could have Buick and suddenly they're in full trust of McCann.
