[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reality is most federal workers are underpaid and work really hard.  Many, if not most, could make more money in the private sector, especially the most highly skilled.  The government's draw is public service and decent benefits. Sure, you could outsource the work that needs to get done, but the private sector overcharges the government and has less oversight.[/quote]
Everyone I know who left private industry got a nice pay RAISE. it's true that the ones at the very top could earn more elsewhere, but for those in the mid-range, their compensation is higher.....and with much better benefits. (A friend of mine just got hired - after two years of trying to get in - and told me she had an increase of 15%. I believe she's a GS 14.)[/quote]

This one. If you are stalled out at Accenture or Booz or CACI at a mid manager level making 80-90k, you can go to government and get a 10%-20% raise for less work. [/quote]

Yes, because it's so easy to get hired by the Feds.  LOLZ.   Previous poster said all the jobs are going the other way - being contracted out by Obama.  Nobody seems to know what is going on.  So much BS on such a short thread. [/quote]
