Wait, that link goes to an archive page from well after Chloe was hired. When I look back to the screen captures from the period of time that Chloe would have seen, there are no specific numbers given for compensation (would link them myself, but I’m on mobile at the moment).
If the ad that Chloe saw said $60,000 - $100,000 in compensation in big bold letters at the top, then that seems like a bait and switch, but the archives from late 2021 list travel as the first benefit, which seems accurate to what the compensation package actually was.
Good catch! That’s quite weird—why would you update a job ad to include compensation information after closing applications?
Here are the versions I see:
2021-10-22, 2021-11-18, 2021-12-03: “Pay: amount dependent on role fit and employee needs”, “The application deadline is November 1st, 2021, midnight UK time”
Chloe worked there from January 2022 to July 2022.
So it looks to me like what we were looking at was a post-Chloe version, probably trying to hire her replacement, and the version Chloe would have seen didn’t have that information.
