Ooh, good question! It very well could. Most of them don't have anything to offer beyond the scope of their clerical duties, or the fact that they weren't all that important in the grand scheme of things. Some may even state their regret for their involvement, but not for any, ah... moral reason. It's purely because they feel so small, thrown under the bus like this. So disposable. Most of them are grunt workers. Janitorial. Clerical. They were in charge of guarding a doorway, or making sure paperwork went unseen. They were in charge of cleaning supplies, or replacing scalpel blades. They admit things like their overall hatred of the upper class, or their disgust towards the lower class; they'll talk about how Patho-Gen will find a way to salvation. That's what all of this loyalty is all about. Salvation. ... For this firm belief in salvation, these imprisoned Patho-Gen members sure don't seem to know much about the plan behind attaining salvation, however. Something about unlocking the pathway to worlds beyond this one, this miserable place. Hardly worth saving. To try to fight its destruction is delusion. They fear the encroaching arcane radiation. These staff members spiral at this point, if drunk/drugged enough; they're sad, scared, powerless. Even though they're complicit in horrific crimes, at the end of the day they're rebelling against a world they're certain is going to kill them. They don't believe in the angle of trying to solve or understand Katalyth, and believe they need to give up on the world, and rebuild on another.
