As a tech worker in NZ, the headline is absolutely right (I just skimmed the article). It's weird to see companies offering the same rates as six years ago, and crazy that research institutions offer a junior salary for a senior job. And don't get me started on mid-level developers looking at spending 50% of their net earnings on paying even a small mortgage, even with the small price drop happening right now.
