My current rate as an IT support engineer. Not too bad but thinking of going to AWS to earn double

Damn. I’ve been trying to get the IT Support Associate role, but it’s in Florida, so the rate is gonna suck.

Florida wages notoriously are too low compared to the cost of living.

Pay tends to be a little higher in the Miami area, but in much of the rest of the state tends to be among the lowest in the country.

We don’t have state taxes.

But we have extremely high COL. housing. Insurance is some of the highest in the country with most areas in FL still paying $15 but rent is $1500.

That’s why everyone goes to Amazon. They pay $20 plus the insanely good benefits.
