These are eminently reasonable salaries. Compared to some of the parasites that I work with who get paid > $300K to do fuck all.
So eh, you guys hiring?
Sure, but you actually have to work hard for your $60k. Don't want the $300k people to feel bad for firing you for not supporting their salary.
Every large corporation is like this too. Even after layoffs, they seem to mostly just get rid of the low pay workers. The high pay morons are still around.
