Thanks for your feedback- this is an issue we've heard about before. When fabric was founded, like many startups, we had not established job levels. As we grew, we realized how important these were in order to create clarity of expectation by roles and levels. After 9 months of work on this topic, we finally introduced leveling in January 2022 (it really becomes necessary when a start-up gets to be of our size and growth). Some titles were adjusted as part of this exercise, but no one was "downleveled" because they were never leveled in the first place. Also, no one's compensation was reduced as a result of our leveling.
