Where is it more common to have a per diem, federal or commercial consulting? My friend who worked in commercial says he never got a per diem, but knew people in federal who did. I worked in federal for 4 years and never saw anyone get a per diem.

Anyone have insight on what’s more common? Going to BCG commercial and wondering if I should expect a per diem.

To clarify, my friend thinks per diems are common in federal and less common in commercial. My question is what is the more accurate statement.

like

It depends. I’ve had them for both. Federal are mandatory, commercial I’d view more as best practice. Kinda a boring point to quibble over, but...

Take a step back, OP.

Federal per diem reimbursement is a set rate per location.
