Currently laid off. Getting lots of phone screens but when it comes to salary what the cap seems to be 95,000, 10,000 below what I was at and a lot lower than what my high has been is this what going rate is now? Seems like I have to go backwards 2 to 3 years every time I layoff happens.

That's rough. Not sure about engineering specifically, but the roles I've been seeing all seem to be lower than they should be if they were keeping pace with inflation. This is very much an employer's market, and most seem to be taking full advantage by offering significantly less than they should be.

It honestly depends on location, company, and years of experience. The job market is really rough right now though. Companies are making lowball offers and people are taking them just to have a job.

It is a tough market, could that be part of it?
