If you got laid off you wouldn’t responsible to pay back anything. If you got fired then yes you would.

Never understood sabbaticals because how can I take sabbaticals from bills but yea don’t worry you are all good

Sabbaticals are paid, but yeah I feel you, def need to save up and financially prepare for it. Helps if you have another stream of income to fill the gaps.

So helpful thank you!!! We get paid enough that even with the 40% pay I didn’t have to dip into much savings (maybe 1 or 2k?) for sabbatical so I did it absolutely guilt free. I think it’s the most underutilized and hands down best perk we get

I “understand“ why they laid you off. You were an expense with no benefits. They laid you off because they couldn’t legally fire you outright. At least you can still draw unemployment benefits and probably SNAP too. You’ll be okay. If you take sabbaticals, be prepared for termination, as most companies (and your coworkers) will see you as deadweight. They won’t care about your reason, no matter how noble. Jealous managers and coworkers will hate you, every day they see your empty desk, as they continue to support the company that gives you “free money.”

I think I know the answer, but want to hear others’ opinions before giving up on the dream. I’m currently at $120k base with 6 yoe. Is there any chance I can get close to that as a fed in the IC? Or am I just looking at a GS11 step 1 that’ll hurt pretty bad? Are there any perks that can help offset the lost income like childcare stipends (the agency mentions a childcare subsidy on their benefits site but I can’t find what that actually means)? Thanks!
