[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought I wanted to go SES, and planned to… but then was offered a job out of the blue in the private sector for about $60k more than my max GS 15 salary. Realized it was more than I would ever make as an SES, even with max bonus, and that I would have so much more freedom and authority than I would ever achieve in government. Left thinking I could always go back… and then a few years later made another huge salary jump to stay in private. No brainer. In my experience, private sector benefits are all over the map. Coming from 15 years as a Fed, I look for opportunities with great benefits and have been successful. [/quote] My friend went private for similar bump but was then laid off at 50. You need to go private young. [/quote]
