The trouble is probably a social one, not legal. Every engineer there is comparing themselves to a guy with a year of experience and thinking that they shouldn&#x27;t be paid less. All at once.<p>Either AirBnB ends up making 230k the minimum salary for everyone or people will take this guy&#x27;s advice and start negotiating, getting counter offer from other places and possibly just leave. Management ended up paying a lot more than 230k for this guy so they are probably not happy.
