Don't have to pay them as much???

If an ex-con manages to learn enough in prison to be a decent dev and land a job I hope they get paid the same as everyone else at their level.

I'd hope for that too, but unfortunately, having an "ex-con" tag in your papers means at least that an employer has a strong argument against you at the negotiating table.
