I love how corpos can just change the rules at will.

Edit: New prices:

And if you look at the old pricing structure, some of the models are increasing by 27x

Gonna be hilarious when the people who haven't been paying attention realize that they just replaced workers with shit that doesn't work AND actually costs more.

Yep, I've been telling anyone who'll listen that if you really want to drop juniors and give tools to seniors, then you have to pay the monthly cost (whatever it will be) and you have to be ready to foot the big bill in 5 years when your seniors (with no candidate replacements) say they'll take a 50% raise or walk.
