Northrop Grumman's operation up here. They have been hiring engineers like crazy and had to offer very competitive salaries to draw people to move here from our of state.

If you dona cost comparison between what an engineer at Hill AFB makes with 10 years of experience to what they make at Northrop Grumman, and I know plenty of people who jumped from jobs at Hill to jobs at Northrop Grumman for salary increases ranging from a 40% pay raise all the way to doubling their salary.
