Comp - sticking with one asset class vs generalist

Seems to be a lot of threads regarding comp lately....noticing a trend that a lot of the roles posted that note they're "multi-asset" roles or "invest across asset types" seem to pay a lot better than those that are dedicated to just one asset class like multifamily or industrial, particularly for associate/analyst positions.

Does this seem accurate?  I always sort of thought you wanted to be highly specialized in one asset class and this would translate to better compensation, but I'm not sure that's the case anymore
