[quote=Anonymous]I moved from private sector to Fed not too long ago. Most people I work with are smart people who are hard workers and who have young kids, needed a break from nonstop work or wanted the government experience. The Fed is a great place for flexibility, life balance, and the experience. However, there are definitely trade offs. Pay obviously, having to deal with bureaucracy, the pace is pretty slow, and professionals often have to share offices (even senior people with a lot of experience have to share, and junior people who happen to have been there for longer get their own office). Morale is up and down. Talk to people at your agency prior to making the jump so you know exactly what you are getting and what you are leaving behind. Many people I know who transferred from private to Fed were somewhat shocked initially, although have adjusted after a period of time and have come to really like the lifestyle.[/quote]
