Am I expecting too much? Looking for a new job and totally shocked at how low some salaries are compared to the job criteria and experience required. For someone with 8 years of experience (academic coordinator) roles are max. 80k! Considering the COL situation in NZ, how are people living on these wages?

I think some people are just taking what they can get because of how competitive things are. It's not fair, but hopefully it comes with regular pay reviews once you're in the door.
