Pay is the missing piece. Tech pay is way down because everyone competed with FAANG for talent. Now that they had layoffs and cut pay, tech workers are looking for similar pay to what they had in the past but it's not there anymore.

We offer that pay though, like we make above average, 35 hour weeks, a lot of benefits for a tech job, and we still have postings that sit up for months.
