Well, the executives, and the cult mentality within those companies, will tell the developers that they don't deserve more, and that they couldn't find better if they tried to leave, and that they are also easily replaceable. It is toxic manipulation. It would be fine, in some sense, if it were just supply and demand, but having seen the emotional breakdowns of a number of my friends, it is definitely more than that.
