And I don't disagree with that! My point is that the increase we saw went beyond salary fixing. I'm talking seeing TC offers that were more than just stock, and often a cash component, in many cases double for the same job/level at the same company over two years. Where you saw people with no experience hired in at rates significantly higher than high-performers who had worked at a company for a number of years. Do I personally regret not taking some of those insane offers when I had the chance (prioritizing pay over working in a position I know I wouldn't have enjoyed)? Yes, I do. But I also knew in 2021 and even mid-2022 that none of the offers that were going out were sustainable long-term.
