Lower means you might leave for somewhere that pays you better. Higher means the company won't be able to spend enough on business overhead, support staff, and benefits package.
This is in line with a place I worked at (more towards the lower side). It wasn't the sort of job you could just freelance for, it absolutely relied on a team doing "enterprise" work for large clients using very industry-specific tools and experience. Relatively easy work but basically impossible to get out there and do yourself.
