money isn’t everything. the work may be better or better work life balance, leaving toxic environment.

you never really know what someone is making. they may say they’re making $100K but may only be making $75.

they may be on an account that is lost, about to lose their job, may actually not be employed, etc

the employer should represent the salary is $70K and let the applicant decide

Advice needed! I started at an ID firm only a few months ago after a long stint doing in-house litigation. I was referred to the firm by a very good friend who also still works there.
