I think generally for production solutions IE10+ and Edge along with the more modern browsers is the way to go, but personally (stuff that doesn't have customers or a part of commerce) I prefer not to add to the usefulness of IE. So then I only target chrome Firefox, Safari, and usually edge can keep up with it but I don't give edge any extra effort.
Would you recommend that even to those starting out and looking for web dev work? Would I need to support lower than IE10+ to impress employers, or would the not care?
It depends on the employer... Is it a company that provides services to other companies with legacy stuff or requirements to support older browsers, then yeah talking about it shows them that you are thinking about it when developing. If it's a startup or a company that builds things knowing that their market largely uses modern browsers because they are technically inclined? Then no, it won't matter as much.

IE10 isn't supported anymore, for us it's IE11 or pay more.
We should make customers pay for IE11 too, IMO.
Agreed, I would love to be able to do that.
