Parties enter into agreements all the time - often grudgingly.
The above agreement MIGHT be "based on the mutual agreement of what the
employee and employer agree the position is worth", if neither side is
under pressure. A person in desperate straights would very likely
accept employment that was needed, even if that meant he fully believed
he was underpaid, or the work was too hazardous. Similarly, an
employer might hire an unqualified, or irresponsible employee, if he
could find no one else to do the job.
An extreme example comes to mind from the Japanese movie Seppuku (1962)
aka "Harakiri". Here an individual decided to perform seppuku for
money to pay for needed medical care for his wife. He saw no other way
out. The employer, a samurai clan, tricked him and gave him a
bamboo-edged blade to perform seppuku with (so they could relish the
event all the more). He suffered much more than expected as a result.
[To conclude the movie, the father-in-law had his revenge.]
