> that most companies don't pay close to FAANG levels, then why are non-FAANG companies having a hard time to compete?
Hard time to hire engineers according to their bar. Their bar is high (FAANG level) but they don't pay FAANG level so this is interesting => They don't want to lower the bar (rightfully so) and nobody wants to be perceived as "FAANG" reject.
> You insist that few companies are paying close to FAANG levels
Few? I'd say they're "exceptions" (like Uber... for a while before they laid people off) and the rest aren't even close.
