Do Leidos, SAIC, and other mostly-fed consulting businesses pay bonuses to all levels? If so, what does a typical bonus target look like? Booz Allen does not pay bonuses until you get to the Senior Associate level (1 step below Director) and I think that impacts employee performance and work ethic pretty dramatically. I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.

Last year in public sector, it was at least 10%.

Oh hey fellow Boozer also looking at Leidos. Seems like there aren’t many folks from Leidos here and info on compensation is scare elsewhere.

funny

It’s not just Leidos. Most federal contractors have different cost pools depending on the type of work. This impacts some benefits such as professional development. They sometimes will lay off entire staff to relocate the place of performance to cities with cheaper labor cost. Cheaper cost pools makes them more competitive. Partly to blame here are government agencies going for the lowest acceptable bid even when they said they won't.

No sure you can classify SAIC and Leidos as consulting businesses. They’re in the same league as CACI and GDIT. Based on my experience, only senior
Managers and above are eligible for incentive plans, which pay a percentage of your salary. They are not that great. Otherwise it’s performance bonuses.

I've been working at a government agency for 6 months, helping to stand up a new team. The job involves interacting with real estate developers. One of the developers reached out to recruit me for a similar position that will pay more than $50k my current salary. I feel guilty, especially since I'd interact with my current team on the other side. It's a hard to turn down that salary, though I feel guilty since my team is thin, and it's only been 6 months!

Any tips on navigating this situation?
