I just looked up the Governor's salary for the state I contracted for, and it's less than a first-year FAANG salary. So in this case, no, they can't really negotiate anything under the current structure.

- sokoloff 5y agoCould you name a couple of these states that have such a Constitutional prohibition (or even a statute) on any state employee making more than the governor?
