[quote=Anonymous]NP. My parents were feds in the 70s-90s. My dad lost 2 very good federal jobs (he was a data analyst, statistician) when one then another agency relocated to DC area, and most of the staff were Not offered relocation, only the leadership. The field offices in large cities closed to consolidate in DC. He couldn’t move even if offered relocation due to caring for elderly parents. He was furloughed then finally offered a customer service type job at a lower grade. Then, several years later my mom and her colleagues experienced similar situation. Only several relocated to DC. She was close to retirement so stopped working earlier than planned. Bottom line —- neither parent was offered lucrative benefits or relocation when their jobs went away or moved. No special golden parachute. [/quote]
