What % of feds ever see $150k? I would bet less than 5% or 10%.[/quote]

…  Now, there are other scales, including SE, but even on those scales, guesstimate that only about 1-1.5% of the workforce would be over $150K.  I would say it is highly unlikely that there is more than 4% of the workforce that makes over $150K.

This may be an underestimate. Only something like 70% of the federal workforce is on the General Schedule. There are some lower-paid Wage Grade employees, but also all the SES (and SL and ST) and the special pay plans for SEC, Fed, FDIC, plus all the augmentations for medical professionals and IT professionals across many agencies. Most of those other scales exist explicitly to provide higher levels of compensation than the GS. So I suspect there are a lot of highly paid federal employees missed by this data. [/quote]
