Definitely. The ideal (for me anyway) would be enough of a salary to live on, and a good bonus - to stay lean, but still be well rewarded.

High salaries are a two-pronged strategy for a company. First it aids retention by "trapping" employees in a lifestyle. Secondly it raises barriers to entry for direct competitors. So long as you are aware of what's happening, enjoy it while it lasts, and make sure you stash some away.
