So switch to private sector.


Why would you want sucky talent in the public sector? Not saying public sector employees should make the same as private, but a 20-25% gap for professional positions is too wide.

I was hired at a salary below private sector and it still is. I’m not eligible for a step increase for three years. But if 5.2% goes through that’ll be a 10% raise in 18m anyway. Still below private sector but very welcome and needed.

We lost three in the past three months to private sector. Another just gave notice. It takes so long to backfill those positions. If I wasn’t fifty years of age, I would seriously consider popping my shoot as well. Ah, the advantages of youth in this economy.

I know right. GS 13 here. If this increase goes through next year my salary will be 154K. Even if it gets knocked down to 4%, salary will be 152. Let’s go!!!

I sure hope so. Inflation has wiped out 3 years worth of grade and step increases for me. My office is losing people like crazy.

Is negotiating it down to 1% a bone to throw republicans in budget negotiations?
