[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That said, if the private sector pushes salaries up so that housing continues to become even more expensive, then yes the government is going to have a problem. The federal workforce is very old by and large. As agencies recruit younger employees to replace them, there may be a need to increase locality pay or move some offices further out. [/quote] I liked the idea of relocating agencies within the US. Where are the non-tech, non-lawyer junior employees supposed to live on <$100k salaries? Do you really want them commuting 1 hour/day or moving far out and selecting wfh where they can't meet co-workers and network in person? Seems bad for everybody. Keep the SES and highest ranks in DC part time but move the bulk of the workforce around the country. I understand the current folks with houses, kids in school, and so forth will resist but at some point you just have to rip the band-aid off.[/quote]
