So what happened in 2020-2022 where everyone was willing to pay more and more for the same skill sets?

I think we're agreeing on the same thing here, I am saying they will never pay $700k now, but they probably have someone at that comp level, so they have to list that in the range.

You have no idea what you're talking about, so please stop talking with such confidence.

Netflix has always paid top of the market. They haven't dropped their salaries. Period, end of sentence.

They will, but it depends on previous work/level. The range is because they’ll hire you in for a position at your ideal level, not necessarily for the position you actually applied for.
