[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went from $79k to $161k in 5 years in govt. I took a cut to get my foot in the door. It might be worth it![/quote] I also went up about $80k in around 5 years, but impression is that such a rapid increase is unusual.[/quote] Both cases above are exceptions. Study the GS pay scale. We go up only 1 step each year. After a while, we go up 1 step only every 2 years. This resulted in me going up about $25k in 5 years. With an advanced degree. [/quote] That assumes no promotions. It also assumes someone is on the GS scale. But, I agree that quick of a rise is not common.[/quote]
