[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you’ve already got great benefits, maybe not. The main draw of federal jobs is the benefits, especially for retirement. I also had a great work experience with reasonable hours (which was huge coming from BigLaw), but that depends heavily on which office you’re in, as well as the agency. [/quote] There are a lot of companies with benefits that rival or exceed what the government gives you and they also pay significantly more.[/quote] Very few give as much leave and none have a pension or FEHB. But the best benefit is the stability of many roles in government and the generally 40 hr work week. Hard to quantify that in private company and variable based upon manager usually. [/quote] Keep telling yourself that. I know more and more people who have been fired from the fed govt for political and arbitrary reasons. It’s not what you think it is.[/quote]
