Idk how you think it's strong. Have you actually looked for a tech job in the last few months?

One job I interviewed for, they told me they had to turn off the listing because they got too many applicants.

There might be jobs if your totally desperate. Some bottom of the barrel jobs are out there. But accepting total comp decreases between 150k to 60k,along with return to office and limited vacation days again doesn't feel strong.

If you're seeing 150k decrease I can only assume you were getting an exorbitant rate not too long ago. Getting $600k to write REST APIs was an aberration and will probably never come back. You can still earn an upper middle class salary at a financial company or retail very easily.
