My RP has mentioned many times that I'm overpaid compared to those in office in the same role... Got a raise and promo last year. What are my chances of getting a fair bump this year?

I think they usually just level it out .they Gave me a higher package than seasoned seniors but then they din promote me last year cause I was just there for five months so either way it levels out .

I came in at the top of my EA pay band and literally just sat at that upper limit my first year. They actually gave me an additional bonus that was supposed to reflect what my raise would have been had i not been boxed in at the upper limit.

So the answer is "it depends on your situation", though all bets are off with this cohort model.

They always say that to me ... Every time .. Every single fking time ..

Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

Fish who have been feds,

I have been stuck deciding between two offers (both in IC, but one is more program analysis -similar to consulting work but on the fed side, and actual analysis).

The program analysis offer is at a higher GS level and a more well known agency, but is not what I’m interested in.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a decision? Go with what I want to do, or go with the more well known agency and higher gs?
