The quote is from an executive in Denmark, where wages are on a much narrower distribution compared to America and many services are socialized.

If it's the difference between $90k at a hip tech company or $93k at a stuffy bank, people may choose the tech company. If it's $250k at Amazon or $120k at a startup, they'll probably choose Amazon. But those kind of spreads are less common in Europe.
