[quote=Anonymous]For IT, I went from $200K to $139K as a GS-14. Now, at $154K as GS-15. A few things to consider: 1. Do not assume you will get the upper range of the salary tables that you can find on OPM's websites. HR usually offers at the first step and not the highest step 10. 2. For me, the benefits were much cheaper as a Fed. So that cushioned some of the salary reduction impact. 3. Make sure you have good reasons to commit to a Federal career. If you have 2 or 3 reasons for your switch, it will soften the blow of the salary impact. For me, I was burned out from IT consulting, believe in my Agency's mission, and was looking forward to being on the "deciding" side of the table.[/quote]
