[quote=Anonymous]PP here again -- as for bonuses, depends on your agency, but in general non-SES-ers don't normally get bonuses for a good review. You might get a QSI if your regular step isn't due for a while, or an EPA (exceptional performance award), although EPAs are usually tied to a specific activity you did. Of course, if your agency is on one of these weird banding scales and not the straight GS schedule, then they may do things differently. If you are on a banding scale, always push to get money added to base salary and not the fancy bonuses. Over time, money added to the base is much more in your pocket. The upsides and downsides of federal employment are -- you know how much you are going to make in a year. You are not likely to be surprised with more or less (of course, hello, sequestration). For the most part, federal employees trade stability of income over time for bonuses and higher incomes. [/quote]
