The easiest jobs pay about $150K or $600K+. The hardest jobs seem to pay under $80K OR about $300-$400K/yr.

Jobs are about as difficult as it is to replace the employee. With jobs < $80K, the employee typically has little leverage.
Can't keep up with Amazon's shift requirements? Next. Can't keep up with your commercial bank's analyst deadlines? Next.
But by the time employees rise into roles that require some experience and training, they begin to have ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐.
They can find other employers who think they need them. And their work has risen to a complexity level that exceeds an excel tracking sheet.
Which means they're less likely to face impossible quotas or production demands, because there is less visibility into what they actually do. Many W2 workers can coast in their careers making $150-$250K if they find a role that allows for this.
BUT, if they aspire to rise higher, it will come with MORE visibility and scrutiny. At the $300K-$400K level, the production of the group you oversee will be judged against the production of similarly situated groups. You will once again be held responsible for items outside your control. And stress levels will rise.
