Psychopaths just pay better.

[ckocagil]

They not only pay you scraps, but keep you hostage by employing blacklists shared by multiple companies (so that if you leave, you don't get another job at a high level company) and conspire with other companies to keep your wages low.

"The defendants are Adobe, Apple Inc., Google, Intel, Intuit, Pixar, Lucasfilm and eBay"

Psychopaths pay what they'll make you think is better but in reality is as little as they can manage to make you accept.

[Cthulhu_]

Some do, others just don't care about what'd be a fair compensation and will do whatever it takes.

Did NeXT pay well, that is, as well as Uber pays today in inflation adjusted terms?
