Is the salary competitive?

• mh- 3y ago
  to my knowledge, USDS is still constrained by the General Schedule[1] salary table. (no.) edit: incidentally, this other thread [2] on the front page today has lots of comments confirming. ctrl-f for USDS.

  Anyone with a current significant salary in tech who lives in a major metro will make $183.5K. The salaries adjust by location, pick your location from https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries-wages/2020/general-schedule/ https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries... This is the SF area table: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries-wages/salary-tables/20Tables/html/SF.aspx https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries...

    The links seem to be a bit out of date. Says for year 2020 and has a % increase for 2023? $170,800 is the top number in the chart for 15-10.

  Most people do this as a sabbatical. I don't expect it to match my current salary, or be even half of it, frankly.
