I my playtrough the wages for Trained lawyers is bigger than hired at 100%.
I made some test and after I negociate lawyer wage with low skills i can close at 60 w/h
After i trainned to 100% the wage is generally more than 140 w/h
If I negociate wage with 100% skills employee, the lowest i got was 126 w/h
I thing we could lower the wage for trainned employee or increase de lower treshhold for 100%
Some others type of employee looks like the same situation where after trainning employee, the wage was bigger
Obs: I love to grind and train staffs aimimg the lower wages
