It's wild to me that so many companies require 5+ years of experience for a 50-60K starting salary. As a hybrid specialist, I'm only available to discuss roles with a salary of at least 80K. I didn't earn a 5-year degree or gain 6 years of experience for field technician-level pay. And some companies will look at you like you're crazy for requesting the bare minimum of your worth. As a frame of reference, just a standard Environmental planner level II-III starts at like 70+K

The thing is as people push more for remote/hybrid the more a company has a justification to push the area they seek employees out in. Because of that they can add a lot of low COL living areas into the equation on what a salary should be. And let me tell you there's a lot more low COL areas (not actually low but in perspective against a HCOL is low enough) to push that salary down. Everything in life comes with a price and for the great push for remote/hybrid the cost was salary.

People are a comedy for a company. Guessing by your title i assume you drive a van or truck for a living. If you needed tires for your van and one repair shop quoted you $1600 for 2 new front tires or another company selling the exact same tires came in with a quote of $1600 for all 4 tires replaced who are you choosing?

Completely agree!

Here’s the thing, a few years ago these salaries would be an insult. But now with the way, the economy is and people being out of work for months at a time. Employers realize they can get a lot more for a lot less. It’s rough when the job market doesn’t favor the applicant.

Nah! Not with A.I. the money is on a different level from what these people are asking for. The offers they are putting out here barely covers a retainer!
