Those salaries seem quite low compared to the Randstad. If these are true, then the answer is "Yes"...

Can you name me 3 tech companies in the Randstad that aren't consultancy that pay more than that?

I don't think these numbers are exceptionally high but they're not low either.

I work for the largest ISP (KPN) and started at €43k for my traineeship about 6 years ago. I'm now at €80k.

€40k is way too low, way way too low. People starting out in regular jobs in healthcare or education without too much education already make €45k.

€45k is 'modaal' in 2024, the modal salary for the entire country.

I think your numbers are about 10 years behind reality.
