[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand fed employees. You have guaranteed salaries and jobs 4 life but all you do is complain, complain, complain. My neighbors are an GS-14 and 15. The government paid their student loans for them, and other than their mortgage, they are debt free and living their best lives. They just bought a vacation home in Shenandoah and take multiple vacations each year. Why are y'all complaining again?[/quote]
I don’t understand stupid posts like this. The vast majority of Feds will never become GS 13/14/15 in their entire career.[/quote]

What’s a job in the federal government that isn’t on a track to a GS-13, and the employees don’t already make more in total compensation than private sector counterparts?[/quote]

80 percent of jobs in field offices never reach GS-13+. two thirds of federal employees work outside of the DMV. [/quote]

Yes, and those tend to be in job areas where the compensation for feds is good. It’s the professional jobs in specialized areas (law, cyber, bio/med) that tend to be underpaid, and nearly all of those will top out at or above GS-13.[/quote]

Almost any nonsupervisory job in a land management agency, including PhD level scientists and IT. To get to GS-13 you have to manage teams. [/quote]

I have a family friend who retired as an attorney for the VA at a GS-12, she went to a top law school and worked there over 30 years but never went into management so she could never go above a 12.[/quote]
