[quote=Anonymous]I wonder what the OP decided to do. A lot of Feds can't actually get decent jobs in the Bay Area tech companies -- not even a so-called "legacy" company like Cisco (which is still basically printing money despite not being as high-riding as they once were). Their skill set and more importantly, their mindset, are too far from what Silicon Valley companies are looking for. SV is looking for young-at-heart, super-energetic, work-obsessed (read: not family-oriented with a personal life) people, who are entrepreneurial go-getters, rule-breakers, risk-takers, with skills on the bleeding edge of tech. Successful Feds tend to be the opposite of that -- good at gently getting things in a methodical way, good at navigating bureaucracy and sticking to the rules, good with well-established non-risky tech.[/quote]
