[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good pay + benefits. Easy to slide by under the radar.[/quote] It’s funny because some people on these boards turn their noses up at federal pay. Other people claim Feds make too much. The reason people want the jobs is for stability (very difficult to be laid off or fired), and they offer a pension, although it’s not as good of a deal as it used to be. [/quote] For me, it's health insurance. I was on my late husband's biglaw plan for decades. It was great. (I saw the recent post about biglaw ceasing to subsidize, but his was subsidized.) I'm shocked at how bad my company's is. The only thing that beats fed retirement healthcare + Medicare is Tricare for life. I'm in a public service field, so realistically, my salary is capped regardless of where I work. [/quote]
