$100k for a senior engineer is atrocious. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Good luck!

The market is pretty bad, they will get someone who lives in a low cost of living state who will take it.

FWIW it is fair if they hire abroad.

You noticed how the current market is? I don't know what you think how employees should react? They of course will pay what they need to pay to get what they want.

No one will overpay to be nice
