Not by a long shot. Its better than anything but the top companies. Total salary includes locality pay, which for DC is $142K and for SF is $154K. There are also a bunch of benefits, not least of which is the federal pension. If you worked for the feds for 20 years you would draw a $30k a year pension.

That’s in addition to the default max of $140K? If so, then yes, it would actually be really good.

Because it’d suck to start out at the max and then never increase any more.

I’m not sure if I’d count a $30k/year pension good, but the fact that you can get it after 20 years is pretty cool.

It’s not in addition. DC is $142,000 total after the CoL adjustment
