I would say some can claim it and do it, however... The ones that try and claim it but have salary caps 100% cannot claim it. You cannot have leveled pay band

I would say some can claim it and do it, however... The ones that try and claim it but have salary caps 100% cannot claim it. You cannot have leveled pay bands (IC3-IC8) and claim the best. You also cannot have percentile based pay vs the market and claim the best, you have to pay at 99% percentile.
