Well it differs for every person I guess. I think it is fair wages (as far as salary go for engineers, it is above avaerage), actually more then fair, throw on benefits and I'm pretty happy.

Al, if you think you are being treated fairly, then keep on keepin on. if you feel that there is merit in what your former co-workers have done, and that they are making more for the same thing. you may want to let your boss know, or do as they did and seek greener pastures. if company loyalty is hindering you from making what you deserve, then they are taking advantage of you and your loyalty. don't burn any bridges on your way up though. think it through, and do what will work for you.
