Mostly because government and small-scale enterprise balk at the salaries they command. Income inequality is a concern, and some people are certainly overpaid.

Mostly because government and small-scale enterprise balk at the salaries they command.
Income inequality is a concern, and some people are certainly overpaid. But at the C* or technical architect level, the cost of pinching pennies is dominated by the cost of choosing a wrong direction (or not recognizing a changing situation and correcting quickly enough).
- pergadad 7y agoPublic sector salaries are simply set a certain way - through a political process, covering all employees. There is little leeway to give higher/lower salaries to a few as that smells like cronyism. You can't negotiate a gov salary, except for externals.
