I deeply appreciate your other response to me as well as this comment / question.
Obviously this is going to happen, I am not shocked or surprised and I get how it can cause anxiety to emerge.
I do think there's a connection between resilience (as you observed in your other response) and entitlement. I am not sure which way causality flows but you wrote: "promise them unprecedented compensation" - I feel like there's also a realistic mindset that should go with interpreting that: I am hired to do a job and things could change (vs something like I get this comp because the universe knows I am the shit or something like that)
