Not only that, but seniority is also often used as a bargaining chip.
Having the title in your CV means something for future employers, so employees want it and companies give it willy-nilly as a very cheap perk.

- ghaff 4y agoIt's funny that, more often that not, in tech roles (but not a developer) I've mostly never used a title that was my actual HR title (which more than once shifted without me even knowing about it until I logged into the system for some reason or other). Yet some areas of tech, which prides itself on lack of gatekeeping, seems almost bank-like in its obsession with job levels. (To be clear, I'm not talking making up "Senior Vice President" but just something less HR-like than my actual title.)
