Plus you get people are less interested in “work life balance”, and generally don’t have as high of salary expectations. I’ve been involved in hiring decisions where HR brought up the healthcare costs to complain, then stated clearly we can’t use that as a criteria for hiring. I have doubts that human brains can separate out that kind of statement from our actions.
