I have seen lot of posts about openings lately, are companies back to hiring now or what exactly is the market going on ? People who have recently applied can share their experiences on the market, compensation hike and ghosting by HRs if it is still happening

Are companies hiring again in normal ways giving those buffed up packages as they were in the WFH days? Can someone who might have recently interviewed shed some light or someone who is tracking this?

For Software engineers with 7/8 years of experience or access to relevant data points, can someone tell me the following: Pay structure and salary increment in 2016-2019 cycle vs 2019-2023 cycle I have a feeling that a lot of SEs here have an inherent sense of entitlement, that they deserve a salary X / WFH / other covid perks... which is primarily pegged to the madness of 2020-22, where they were getting abnormal salary increments. My hypothesis is that they are still better off in 2019-23 cycle vs 2016-19 cycle. Thoughts?

Companies started hiring or there's still hiring freeze?

When will tech hiring be normal again and I can finally find a job, I’m dying in this environment and don’t have any sense one here to proceed
