This one of the group agrees. I know at my job, and many others that have decent (all relative) pay/work rules that was the case before this last short lived hiring cycle ended. Sure, there were a few of the guys you're talking about moving on, but the majority going to (insert legacy here) were the more mid level to junior CA's.
