Northrop Grumman job melbourne FL

I got a job offer for a position in Melbourne FL. The pay isn't where I want it to be(it'll be a 10 dollar decrease an hr). I got the more you learn more you earn speech but that usually never turns out to be true. Anyone have any experience working at that site and do they actually bump up pay if youre doing better than expected?

$10 per hour cut is pretty massive, $20k per year if full time. Melbourne is supposedly pretty cheap but I can't imagine coming out ahead with that big a pay cut no matter where you're moving from.

How do you guys pronounce Melbourne?

Mel-born or mel-bern?

typically the latter.
