It’s hard to fathom this discussion.
At the risk of sounding like my depression era father:
-starting pay was 26k until two contracts ago
-most of us didn’t break 100k until year 5
-came here with wife and daughter
-making 200k your second year is highly probable
I’ve noticed, and so has the company with more than a few fired first year for entitlement issues, new hires with a different view point of what it is to be on probation. It’s been a noticeable shift in attitude.
