[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a CPA in a niche field and regularly get multiple messages from recruiters. I am talking to one this week and possibly another next week. I am in the 4.4% pension deduction category. Total Comp at my current job is 124,846(approximately 109k base plus 15.5k pension). I am not including the TSP match since most jobs provide a similar match to the FED 5%. Seeking opinions. I wouldn't leave for less than my current comp, but what is the $$ you would leave the stability of the federal government given the option?[/quote] Absolutely, not worth it. The grass is always greener somewhere else. You will regret scarfing work-life balance for a meager increase in your salary with less job security. Apply for new fed jobs that with a higher GS pay scale if you want a raise. Unless they are going to double your current salary I would not even consider it. [/quote]
