I'd prefer a junior dev I can mold than a senior dev who's likely to jump ship when a better offer comes along, who's likely to be disgruntled about the pay cut at the very least.

But that's me. A lot of people don't factor in that you get what you pay for.

Also, the amount of handholding you need to do says a lot about your architectural decisions. Whenever I hear about something in a stack that sounds like it adds a lot of complexity, I immediately question it.
