Are there still jobs in the government that offer pensions?

Yes. The feds have a pension and to my knowledge state and local governments also have a pension.

Pretty much all full time permanent position federal jobs offer a pension. The standard retirement benefits are (1) a Thrift Savings Plan similar to a 401k with match (up to 5%), and (2) Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) pension, a benefit for which new employees must contribute 4.4% of their pay. Once retirement eligible, the FERS pension amount is an annuity worth a percentage of the average of the employee’s highest 3 years of salary: 1% per year of federal service, or 1.1% per year of service if the employee is at least age 62 at retirement with 20+ years. So if your average high-3 salary was $100k and you retired at age 58 with 30 years of service, your annual pension would be $30k.

Our senior creative leadership keep talking about winning Cannes Lions and D&AD pencils but none of them have actually won any since 2007 (that’s 14 years 😭 ) and between all three of them they’ve never won more than a couple of silvers, a couple of bronzes and a couple of in-books (that’s with a combined experience of over 60 years 😭). They have no clue 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭. Tell me something about your agency so that I can feel better about the hell-hole I find myself in🙏

The biggest thing I keep running and running around my head- after 8 months, why did he drop me? When he texted ending it l….it wasn’t me, like we weren’t us, his words were from someone else, like I didn’t matter. It doesn’t matter how much it wasn’t about me, how he chose to end it, and that’s what crushed me. Who I thought I knew was wrong. I want to know how close he was to loving me.

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co.

I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?
