[quote=Anonymous]I'm also 7 years out of school work for a federal agency now after a doing contract work with firms. Our agency has 3 days telework and flexible start times. Still only a GS-12 , promotion potential competitive to a 13 in the current position. Upward mobility after that is highly limited and competitive. However, it's a trade off. You have to decide at some point which is more important to you the $$ or the work/life balance. I have never worked in big law, but i'm familiar with the lifestyle and have had MANY collegues burn out and make the shift to govt IF they can get in and are willing to take an almost entry level position to start. There is no shame in saying the upward mobility and $$ are more important to you or that you prefer the life balance. It's your call but a tough decision to make. [/quote]
