[quote=Anonymous]Early 30's and I left private to go into the Feds about 3 years ago. FEDS: Pros: Flexibility, job security, leave (after 3 years) and some benefits (TSP, medical). Cons: Difficult to move up, difficult to move into other series, lower pay, political bickering, gross inefficiency and waste, low morale, lots of paper pushing, slow decision making.... PRIVATE SECTOR: Pros: Salary with increased based on performance (not seniority), training opportunities, interesting work Cons: Volatility, deadlines, competition, no maternity or STD I joined because I wanted a slower pace and that’s exactly what I got. They say that grass isn’t always greener and this DEFINITELY holds true in my case. I’m planning to stay put for now (because I just had a baby) but once the economy firms up, I’m out. [/quote]
