Almost 2 years out of AD, and now thinking about going back to the Reserves to get my TSCI and just cause I miss it. Does anyone have insights on fed consultants’ salary with a TSCI?

What do you do right now?

As for exact ranges, its hard to say. A cleared developer will be able to command a way larger increase than a cleared change management consultant.

TS/SCI will make you more marketable and most firms offer a yearly bonus if you utilize your clearance. Recently I feel like the real push has been for TS/SCI + poly (CI or full, but full will get you way more $$$).

Also talk to your security office.

Yeah I’m sure there is, but I’m not joining the Reserves just to pivot to fed work. The perks that come with it are just nice

Do the reserves actually get those? Probably be worth whatever BS obligations they add on. We couldn’t even get the Marine Corps Reserve to give secrets to E7s unless they were deploying, even though it was basically a requirement for promotion.

You need to have a specifically coded billet for it. Most billeting structures label specific jobs on specific staffs as having a need.

In the navy, your job needs to be Q coded. Meaning when I was a CO, I didn’t need one because my active component didn’t use them. Now I am on a JFMCC staff in the Pacific and most don’t have them, but as a FIRES officer, my billet requires it.

All intel billets with few exceptions require them. Same with cyber warfare, space warfare, crypto, most comms, etc.

At my 3-letter agency we recently paid just over $550k to bring out 6 management consultants to teach a 2 week class to 40 attendees. I'm not sure how much each of them got paid, but that was our cost.
