Until you’re over the many hundreds of thousands of dollars per year range, it works pretty well as a rule of thumb. If your company wants the cost of working in an office, they’re probably not paying high salaries to work in a rundown shack and the people making those high incomes also want better quality benefits (especially in the United States where healthcare is so expensive and cheaper plans mean more time having to argue with someone whose bonus is based on denying care).
