[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]29, at OMB there is a career ladder from 9-15 for non-supervisory program examiners so if you start as a 9 at age 24 you can be a 15 when you’re 29. It’s absurd, a big reason that OMB is so highly graded even for non-supervisors.[/quote]

We sure do 😄 but ask us what hours we work …with no overtime pay or any fun extras.

To answer OP, GS15 at 35. [/quote]

People at OMB tell themselves this, that they’re the smartest and hardest working people in government. That’s why they promote themselves quickly and every single supervisor is an SES. I was there for a few years then I went to an agency where we had actual customer demands and did real tangible work, which was much harder, required more hours but was also more rewarding. [/quote]

You are replying to me and I did say we work hard but not that we’re the smartest. You could do that work and deliver because we spent hours figuring out budgets and management policies that would (to extent possible) promote mission and not interfere.

To everyone else, the handful of supervisors are SES because they deal with direct politicals …aka the President’s folks. And we have a 15 ladder but not every year, there are certain steps we need to hit first before we can be considered for a GS increase. Oh and we’re pretty freaking motivated by civil service and our mission but who isn’t :) [/quote]

I have never met anyone at OMB who was trying to not interfere. That seems to be the only thing they're trying to do.[/quote]
