In California at least, nothing stops you from asking about expected pay as part of the application process and setting expectations for individual candidates early. From the applicant side, I'm constantly amazed at how many companies are shamelessly advertising senior level jobs with embarrassingly low salary ranges. Being able to weed out companies whose _upper_ bound is less than I'm making now as a government contractor (i.e. very much not FANNG pay) saves a ton of time.

Times are tough but I noped out of a Director of Product role that was offering $100-110K.
