This really seems like a stretch.

I can maybe see how low interest rates could maybe increase software salaries. But I can't see anyway that would depress EE salaries.

Not enough hardware startups compared to purely software startups. EE as an industry is not benefiting from low interest rates to the same stratospheric extent as SW has, thus the individual engineers aren’t either.
