How to pivot from Federal to Commercial? I'm no longer passionate about Federal work, so I can't pivot to Booze or Deloitte.

Did federal contractors continue to get raises and bonuses from their firms in the last recession?

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.
