Has anyone heard of a non-profit engineering firm? In a very brief look, I saw that their are provisions for scientific organizations. I imagine that you could pay employees more if you had this designation by avoiding taxes.

it would be difficult to maintain "not for profit" status since most owners demand a profit. so for an employee owned company, not likely you could convince all employees to not take any profit. it would have to be closely held with all owners of a like mind.
 
My company is a non-profit company. We don't plan it that way, but, hey, it happens. ☺
