[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^Yes finding another job is an option but the reality is for most people it won't be quick. YMMV but everyone I know that's been able to leave and be gainfully employed - so not leaving to retire or be a stay home parent - is either very senior/like SO level or very young, as in can go to any biglaw firm as a 2nd-4th yr associate. That leaves a ton of 30-50 somethings all looking for the same opportunities. Not saying one should be defeatist and say oh well it'll never happen but the reality is everyone could be here a while - so I see why people are trying to figure out the boundaries/stretch the boundaries etc to make this workable.[/quote] I think there’s also an attitude that the SEC is the only place they can work, and they can’t accept that the terms of employment have changed and it’s time to move on. Many government employees are risk adverse and the prospect of changing jobs is scary. There is also a certain entitlement about what they deserve working for the SEC. I’d guarantee that most SEC employees complaining and trying to stretch boundaries haven’t even worked on their resume. [/quote]
