For "unskilled" jobs that are near minimum wage, yes, there would be no reason to.

But let's say it was a regular office or admin worker. Or even in manufacturing, or trades.

The barrier to get to a middle range salary is harder than make a leap to a higher tier salary.

Edit: now that you've completed your post. I think it depends. My company has a ton (literally) of jobs that pay in the range you mention.

I feel like there is a glass ceiling to just even move to the middle range. Most of my friends are stuck at $18-19 and you would have to literally need a disproportionate amount of experience or qualifications-...

i barely see "middle range" wages. You either are in the lower ring or high

Posted 01-27-2016 at 10:05 AM by helionprime

in California, most of the jobs either fall from minimum wage - $20 or $32 and higher. There are few jobs that pay in the middle of $21-$32

It's either you luck out either to a union or you belong to management or some high demand profession like nursing at the least.

Why are wages either in the lower or high, barely anything in the widening middle range?
