I'm trying to move back to Hawaii after taking a job here in the mainland the last 2 1/2 years. I had this job placement firm tell me that the cost of living is 20% higher in Hawaii but the salaries are 20% lower then where I'm at. When I was there I was in the military but my consulting business brought in more then what this person was telling me it just wasn't on a fulltime scale. So the question is, how does salary.com's scale for Hawaii compare to real life salaries for a Sr. Sys Admin?
Aloha, Mike
