They are just companies. They either don't have money, or have money and want to lowball (it's good time to lowball).
- ceejayoz 3y ago> it's good time to lowball There's lowballing, and then there's insulting.
- CoastalCoder 3y agoWhy would that be an insult? If they can find someone good enough at that rate, then why would they pay more? And if they can't, then they'll just need to discover the market floor by experience.
- antisthenes 3y agoWhen you're scraping the market floor, there are much higher chances of hiring someone who will bring negative value.
- CoastalCoder 3y agoI agree, but it seems to me that it's still the employers choice whether or not to take that gamble. So I'm still not understand the basis for feeling insulted my an employer testing the market in this manner.
- michh 3y agoIf you’ve just been laid off from big tech and have been applying for three months in the current climate you might want to take the insult and hope the startup succeeds in a way that brings you the rewards later. I don’t like it either but that’s where some of my friends are at right now.
