contractor (like this position). It is possible to get more than $80K, but
not very and most of the non-government positions I have seen were $40-60k.
For anyone who plans to stay on the island and work as a unix person, I
highly recommend getting a clearance.

One of my friends made just over $100k salary, but that was rare.

home) as much as $125/hr. They had no benefits and didn't know if they
were going to work 90 hours this week or zero hours for the next six weeks
(if they didn't work, they didn't get paid). Mostly they worked a lot of
hours, but they have all been laid off since the fall of the internet
start-ups.
