I guess this could just as easily be posted in an anti-work community

It's not as great as it was a year or two ago.

That is true.

Two years ago, if I failed to reach out with an offer within 35 hours of finishing the interview, the candidate had already accepted one of the other two offers.

Today it seems like it can take two months for developers to have 3 competing offers. So if I end up needing to hire this year, I'll have the kind of leverage that lets me take the whole work week to interview every candidate I want to, before making an offer.

The great news for me is that some hiring managers I compete with saw the layoffs and decided it was safe to reveal themselves as assholes. That's going to make my job (of stealing their top talent) easier for many years to come, because people have long memories.
