[quote=Anonymous]I could make >$100K more in the private sector. The government has to pay people enough to get good employees. I make $228K and the 5.2% will take me to $240K. Then 6m later I may get my scheduled 3% 2-year zone increase, taking me to $247K. Throw on the $7K bonus (if I take that instead of time off award) and a year from now I hope to be at $255K. I am still significantly underpaid vs private sector alternatives but with better flexibility. But if there’s no clear path to promotion or further raises in a year I’ll be looking elsewhere. I am in my prime earning years and can’t afford to lag inflation. Note I am 20 years into my career and still earning less than a first year law graduate at a major firm.[/quote]
