We pay more based on experience and value brought to the team. Location doesn’t really factor into it. People tell us what they want (and we also publicize a range) and then we try to find something that works (typically it’s more than what people ask for). The entitlement part really goes beyond the free lunches. That was just an example. It’s hard to articulate succinctly. Another example is having to tread carefully to avoid people quitting on a whim because there are so many options. So people get pandered to all the time even when it’s not in anyone’s best interest. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
