[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t care about a a raise of a couple thousand dollars.
I’m in it for the benefits. [/quote]

Which suck.[/quote]

Educate yourself. The benefits are outstanding. Among them:  If you make it to retirement, you can carry the health insurance for you and your partner for the rest of your lives. Best insurance coverage available. Full stop. [/quote]

In guessing you aren't in STEMland?

Our competition does 7%, 401k matches, can mega backdoor, similar insurance, sabbaticals, money to travel to conferences etc.[/quote]
You can’t keep your health insurance when you retire or are laid off, correct? And no pensions? Those are massive differences. [/quote]

Np I am a fed but is the health insurance that good? Isn’t Medicare plus part D cheaper and better?

Fwiw my parents have way better insurance through my dads company than I have. My best friend in private sector doesn’t even pay premiums with her health insurance. [/quote]
Depends when you want to retire and what Fed health plan you have. You can’t get Medicare before 65 on the basis of age, but can retire with health insurance from the Federal government before that depending on your years of service and agency. 57 for me, and the difference between that and 65 with zero worries about health insurance is quite a lot.
