    People need to remember that these only apply to high leadership. For us peons it usually is a Golden Shower.

      Oh this can absolutely happen at the less luxurious positions. For instance, FAANG (the big 5 tech companies, if you don’t work tech like 3/4 of the Fediverse) can afford to pay salaries well above any other employers. We’re talking 200k-400k here, not obscene billionaire-class stuff. Once they grab you, they can treat you worse once you get adjusted to the salary that no one else can match. I’ve seen it happen to a lot of people who end up miserable until they leave and have to go through the readjustment period.
