[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people sterotype federal vs private too much. It totally depends on your field, level, work. I started in the govt (3 years) and then moved private (8+ years). My current company has better benefits than the federal govt and regular work hours. I know people who are both private and federal who work long hours and people who are private or federal who have regular hours. For some fields, there's a clear differnece between federal vs. private (law), but for others, it's not so black and white. Ignore what people are saying. Pick what you think is the best situation for you. [/quote] This is very true. I would qualify the post following it and not overestimate either how great the federal benefits are (they are good, not great, and are being cut back every single year in significant ways) or the job security (see Furloughs, which are merely a prelude to/effort to avoid RIFs).[/quote]
