This is true, but it got very temporarily skewed in recent years at some companies that had a lot of cash flow. There really were companies hiring a lot of highly qualified people mostly to have large teams of highly qualified people.

The rubber band is snapping back, though. Layoffs are hitting all of these companies and expectations are rising quickly. Inevitably, companies paying a lot of money for people will expect to get their money’s worth out of them.

One can argue that the snap-back is exactly they had to offer more money to have large teams of highly qualified people.

> expectations are rising quickly

I think more reality hitting than expectations hitting.
