[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not in the federal government, there are full time employees in their 80's. And people in their 60's are routinely hired.[/quote] +1, I have not seen age discrimination at my agency.[/quote] Yep, this does not happen in government.[/quote] Agreed.[/quote] I've seen it at my agency. Got new leadership in. They've been hiring young outsiders to be supervisors of experienced mid-level folk in their 50s who aren't able to move up, or more senior staff in their 60s find themselves suddenly under another, new layer of supervision by younger recruits. It's clearly designed to make people want to leave. But it's true that it's hard to lay off staff, so if you don't mind what is essentially a demotion or a stunted career you can stay on.[/quote]
