[quote=Anonymous]I got out out of the Fed government to take a position with a 55% pay cut. The new Admin was incredibly toxic on purpose to get as many of us to quit as possible, so I got out for my mental health. But this is how my situation was different from OP’s. I had already been thinking about leaving because even in the previous Admin I was working 9-10 hour days and was burning out. My family had already acquired a nice nest egg through saving and inheritances, so we did not “need” the money I was walking away from. My partner is still a Fed in a position they are not likely to RIF with decent leadership, so they can hang on to that job for Fed benefits, retirement etc. for a few more years. My new job has way better (i.e. fewer) hours, less stress, and a very short commute. Overall, I am happy with my decision, although I wish it could have happened under better circumstances. [/quote]
