> There was discussion about how they thought candidates asking about compensation to be something of a negative signal because they wanted people who weren’t in it for the money, basically.

I've heard this from multiple hiring managers and C levels. The cognitive dissonance is amazing.

Do you know why I show up and work? Because I am paid for it, and in this country, medical is also gatekept by employment.

If I wasn't paid, I wouldn't work for them.

But somehow, I'm supposed to not care about money at the same time caring about money.
