    The problem is the employees were paid too much. They have too much and aren’t desperate enough. Need to drop that pay going forward

      No working 8-5/6 pm employee, making under 100k a year, is being paid too much

        One engineer at a company like this produces literally millions of dollars in revenue and savings. Practically no one is paid “too much” and anyone who says they are doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Even if they make over 100k.

        I can assure even at 200k the company would still be extracting value from most employees. They pay as little as the market lets them get away with.

        The only people who are paid too much at these tech companies are the execs, especially the ones who have no clue what they’re doing and constantly fuck things up.

          No I wouldn’t be. I work in HR as a Generalist, BS Graduate for business management and human resources management, AND I do payroll…

          I see it first hand who is disadvantaged and who is privileged. I see who deserves raises and who didn’t do squat for the amount they have been paid (executive teams and presidents/owners) … Your opinions on who is paid too much, are misguided…
