Why are vendor specific skills paid more than generalist/GRC/manager skills? Is it just the demand in the market?

For example, Sailpoint Engineers I know are making bank. Most compliance-focused managers make ~100K.

Because vendor specific skills usually means you’ve read way to much vendor specific documentation or you’ve been in the trenches with the product and have actual solutions you’ve delivered. Think about how easy it is now a days to be a cloud or ai specialist after taking a quick class and know general knowledge vs someone who’s built an actual app or trained their own model for a specific purpose. Hopefully that was a useful explanation
