True, but that is also telling you something useful about the company.

I'm not defending it, I'm pointing out, that when a company tells you this is how they want to be seen by potentially new recruits then listen to them.

It is a red flag for one of two reasons:

- It is intentionally misleading (i.e. top of range is pure fiction).

- Upward mobility is so terrible, that they comingle multiple different tiers of expertise into the same job title.

There is no positive look from this.
