Is it typical to find completely unacceptable pay on your site? Listings that have requirement for engineers which could pull home 200-300k a year wanting to pay $15 an hour. I guess this is why "nobody wants to work anymore"
One listing (company name omitted to protect the witness):

Where I live, even Walmart can't get people to show up for less than $15 an hour (even though we have no separate minimum wage than the national $7.25/hr).
The KFC across the street from the Walmart was recently advertising $17/hr.
$15/hr for that kind of tech experience would never fly here!
Most companies originally had a 5 day week, but dropped to 4 days without effecting salaries
So typically the salaries are "market rate". Difficult to say for sure though as most companies still don't disclose this
As for the job you mentioned, I know which company this is and its for a part-time job (i.e. not a 4 day week for 100% salary)
Speaking honestly, I added the part time jobs are added to "bolster" content (given there are so few 4 day week jobs atm). I'd recommend focusing on the jobs marked as "4 day week", they are typically "higher quality"
