I am new to working in government. Worked in private sector for 15 years. I got hired as a GS-13 in IT for a DOD agency. Is it common for 80-90% of employees to be completely useless? I feel so many civilian employees do way less than the minimum here and are not held accountable. Even a coworker that is still on probation hardly does anything. Are you essentially safe from being fired as soon as the Security clearance goes through. Already asked to perform briefing ahead of others.

Can anyone give me some insight into the PWC interview process? I know they base some of the questions around the development framework. Does anyone know the questions for a senior associate?

Sometimes the leadership does not even inform you on the status of a submitted proposal unless we win the work. I get why they are doing it but it would be great if there was an external source/website that would share this info instead of us waiting around to hear from them.

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.

Was recently offered a job in Hawaii that would be a much larger role than I currently have (deputy chief architect). The downside is the cost of living is nearly double my current location and I would only be getting a 40% pay increase. Do you think it’s worth giving up quality of life/spending value decrease to accept the larger career and possibly expedite my career progression?
