[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to an agency with a different pay scale, so I remained at the staff level but got a raise. I did the private sector thing before government, no interest in returning. Of my peer GS 15s at that last job, one went to a political appointee job that she likes but is temporary, dont know what the next step is. Two went SES, found the hours not worth the pay, and went back to being 15s. One went from 15 to private to SES. Two others remain 15s, one awaiting a particular SES opening she will excel at and one with no plans to move. [/quote] Nothing can really beat non-supervisory GS-15 especially if you work from home most of the week. There is no stress, there are more vacation days than you can manage to take, there is complete job stability, the work can be interesting but you can also choose to lean out when you need/want too. I’ve contemplated going private many times but ultimately I think gs-15 nonsupervisory is the sweet spot. [/quote]
