[quote=Anonymous]I would also be careful of taking a job because you think in the long run fed benefits will be much better. First, they may not be as good as you think, and they may not be as good as what you have. For example, the health insurance is not cheap, new employees have very little vacation, and there is no paid parental leave (except accrued sick leave). There is a partial pension plan, but I would be leery of making life decisions based on that being around in its current form in 20-30 years. The R's clearly would like to save some money by cutting it back and there are precious few elected officials who actually want to go to bat for federal employee benefits. Plus, unless Congress gets its act together (and we all know how likely that is) the sequester will continue to hit for a number of years in the future, which may mean furloughs or even RIFs at agencies.[/quote]
