> Will use both to lowball you or reject you when comparing with other candidates.

But if they do, I wouldn’t want to work there anyway :/

How is it a bad thing if a company doesn't want to waste training on an employee that could leave next year? If anything the opposite is a red flag, since you would be working somewhere where you are just a replaceable "robot".

I feel like it’s more like the guy who invites you to his party but asks you to bring your own drinks and food.

It’s fine up to a certain point, but when they’re living in a villa it starts to feel cheap.

It sounds like a person who doesnt want a lowball offer, and people who present lowball offers.

No different to selling secondhand cars, lowballers annoy everybody.
