REVscene Automotive Forum - View Single Post - [Confidential] Moving to Fort Mac, would you do it?

Food is about the same cost up there maybe ~10% more.

In the winter, you'll pretty much want a car to get around. Public transit exists up there but runs every 15-30 mins for most routes.

IMO fair compensation would be the average of wages of everyone in the same role as you. I would try to contact people that are doing the same thing and ask what their salary is.

Fly in, fly out, is normal up there, but I've never heard someone in retail getting it. Usually once every 2-3 months is the norm.

Negotiate for housing assistance?
What about health and wellness benefits?

If you live in camp, you will have problems with trades people doing drugs. If you actually live in the city, and you're an outdoorsy person, you will have no problem finding people to hang out with. When I mean people, I mean people that are not degenerates.
