[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very much depends on the job - 10 year Hill vet, had and raised two kids while here. Committee life tends to be better paid and better hours. Personal office staff - depends on how competitive a race your boss has, how junior, how crazy. If you work for a sane, senior, safe Member - the hours are not bad at all. Leadership - forget it. Most insane hours, and hardest jobs to get. The money for the senior roles isn't that bad - plenty of senior staff, especially on a committee are making low six figures. Salaries are capped at (roughly) $165,000. [b]I think the hardest part about having young kids is that a lot of the informal socializing, networking, etc. takes place in the evening.[/b] You can skip all that stuff, go home after work, and have an ok life. But I think it's hard to advance either yourself or your boss if you are just punching in and out. [/quote] +1[/quote]
