High expectations low wage jobs WTF

My partner had a long career in the computer tech industry, 14 years , she made 180s - 200s a year , paid travel , remote work locations and the like

She got laid off in in late 2023

Now the only jobs she can find in similar fields (sorry don’t know what it’s exactly called) they offer her $20-$25 a hour to relocate , of course they all expect her qualifications and security

She is so incredibly stressed burnt through her retirement and savings

Who gave these employers that idea they can offer that poor of a wage for the same jobs and expect so much for it

Skilled labor have to have good wage now it seems how much can they degrade and insult you

We are in the USA . It’s disgusting what the workforce has become
