- gnu8 10y agoYou're going to see closer to $4000 per month after tax.
- w1ntermute 10y agoThat is false. A single person making $160k/year and living in northern VA would receive $9k/mo in after-tax income.
- eropple 10y agoI would love to see your math for this.
- serge2k 10y agoGuessing they meant pay 4k in tax.
- JustSomeNobody 10y agoIt's capped at 160K. This means most are likely making less.
- toomuchtodo 10y agoFor a data point, I was offered $130k for a position at the IRS (as a USDS employee) working on taxpayer authorization, authentication, identity management.
- asimuvPR 10y agoMind sharing location?
- toomuchtodo 10y agoWould've been working out of DC, relocating from the Midwest, for a 1-2 year "tour of duty".
- eropple 10y agoThat's about the number that my contact as a non-USDS employee (they seem to try to hire people for other orgs --"oops, sorry, we're actually full up, but do you want to work for the VA?" - no, no I do not, under any circumstances) was floating at me.
- TheCoelacanth 10y agoEven a lowly GS-7 is making something like 3 times minimum wage. They probably are making less than they could in the private sector, but calling it "minimum wage" is just ludicrously out of touch.
