[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do agencies do this? My first agency started everyone at step 1 regardless of prior salary. My current agency uses a formula based on years of relevant experience. [/quote]

+1 I have the same question, what agencies are starting people at higher than step 1 regularly?[/quote]

I started as a GS-10 having come from biglaw.  I’m a woman.  Would not have been able to afford to come if a GS 1 given the hours meant I missed day care pick up and had to choose a more expensive child care option.  Race to the bottom.[/quote]

you worked in Biglaw and now you work in the feds and yet you still do not know the difference between step 1 (what the previous poster was talking about) and grade 10 (what you are talking about)?  Is this serious?[/quote]

Seems obvious to me that PP was referring to steps, not grades.  This is based on the context clues from the fact that the previous poster was talking about steps and that the fact that there is no grade 10 for attorneys.

This was an absurd thing to pick on PP about, even if you were right, which you aren't.[/quote]
