Title: Curious about pay rates at other location
Post by: twidgetnuke on Aug 26, 2014, 11:14

I am a licensed RO and looking to relocate. One thing that concerns me is pay. I am told that where I am currently employed, we are payed less than the national average. I am interested in trying to get to Limmerick Generating Station in PA. Does anyone know what an RO earns at Limmerick? I haven't been able to find any information online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They pay well enough for you to put in the effort to apply online and ask the recruiter when he contacts you.  ;)

What do you consider the national average?  What are you making now?

I've heard that some plants pay a lot. Usually in high cost of living areas. Other plants pay less. Often in areas with a lower cost of living.
Many people are told during an interview what the pay range is.
