Axiant Cost

Great story!  Bob Edis did a survey on the list here one time.  Where's your 
survey results, Blue? :)   
 
Salaries vary depending on the circumstances. 
 
Permanent vs. Contract 
Length of Contract 
Region 
Country - US leads all other countries in IT professional compensation by a 
mile.  Canada is catching up in figures but the dollar is only worth 68
cents 
so it's just an illusion. 
 
Your confidance in what your worth, what positions you can dig up, and what 
you are willing to ask for will ultimatly determine contract compensation in 
PowerHouse.  Hey, next time you meet someone making $65/hr and says he has
20 
years of PowerHouse experience and then says he never heard of QTP take note
- 
remember this for the next time you nagiociate a contract.

I started out in Powerhouse as a user writing Quiz reports for the database 
I maintained.  I did Quiz Reports for about 4 years or so.  My knowledge 
base grew and my Quiz Reports continuously got more complicated and more 
elaborate.  An opportunity eventually came where I was able to move into the 
IT world becoming the programming support for the database I used to 
maintain.  I've been a programmer for 4 years and I now support all the 
Powerhouse applications we have here at Eveready and I also do the 
administrative work for one of our financial applications.  I have to admit, 
when I started writing Quiz Reports 8 years or so ago, I never thought it 
would lead me to a programming position.  If a person likes challenges and 
enjoys learning, Powerhouse is definitely a pretty good language to start 
with.  I don't know as though I'd be a programmer if I hadn't started with 
Powerhouse. 
 
I would be curious to know what kind of salarieas would be getting doubled, 
(i.e., $15,000 or $25,000, etc).  I've worked for the same company for 
awhile and I'm just curious what salaries are like in the real world for 
 Powerhouse people in the United States.  More specifically, somplace on the 
 East coast from Massachusetts to Virginia.  Also, what kind of knowledge 
base would be expected of somebody coming in with Powerhouse experience.
