Is that how it works? Unless something has changed, if you commute to NY from NJ to work, you pay NY income tax. But even if they operate like NY, they'd still lose out on sales taxes and property taxes, and that's not insignificant.
Regardless, it sounds like they're building multiple factories and it's undecided where they'll be, so it's possible that most of the jobs will be sufficiently far from IL to negate the issue of out of state workers.
I live in WI and work in MN; income is MN as is the TAX; then WI credits the TAX I paid in MN for WI income TAX. I still have to pay WI since MN has lower income tax. This is typical crony capitalism; give money/tax breaks and other incentives to large companies.
