[quote=Anonymous]Although your base salary may be less, the value of the additional vacation, employer share of health insurance, and work flexibility will make up part (not all) of the difference in the short term. In the long term, most jobs do not offer a pension like a Federal job does, so that is a serious consideration. As a former contractor now working for the Feds, I took a slight pay cut but the benefits and pension more than make up for it. I've been at several agencies, and while the government does have more slackers than private industry, the vast majority of the people are hard working - I'm sure this varies by agency / department / team. No regrets for me. [/quote]
