Now, you let me know, which government benefit do you believe is the best? Have you started applying to federal government jobs on Usajobs.gov yet? Let me know down below.

  1. 7. Health, dental and vision
    6. Education – student loan forgiveness & additional education (masters)
    5. Sick leave – never expires. Paternity leave 12 weeks paid
    4. RIF – preference for jobs
    3. Work/life balance, 11 paid holidays, 13-26 days a year depending on length of service
    2. Matching TSP, 5%
    1. Federal Pension (3 highest years x Years x 1%)

    Plus 3hrs per week to exercise, do yoga, find balance. Military leave, Court leave (jury duty), FMLA. New in 2022, 2 weeks bereavement for parents of a qualifying child. Many Departments offer Credit Unions for their employees.

  2. TSP is good, but imo it’s not really a notable benefit. People should definitely take advantage of it of course but most large American companies do 5%. I was even getting that when I worked at Starbucks. But all the other benefits, especially the pension and medical, seem very attractive.

  3. I love your content! Thanks!
    In future videos, can you explain the agency or subagency who ensures and regulates that the federal government is promising the benefits mentioned in this video? Retirement as an example. There is always the "what if" i dont receive my pension or the "what if" in general. Thanks in advance!

  4. I would like to emphasize on SECURITY. In government (as long as you are not on probation) is pretty bullet proof. There are a plethora of protections in which private industry or contractor does not come close. It will take almost an act of congress to lose your position. In my 30 year tenure in the work force I have seen good people get let go or fired for hideous crap when they should not have as a contractor. One guy was terminated whilst on the phone in a meeting because of a ranking general with a ego. You may or may not get paid less than a contractor but honestly, I would accept a $15 – $20,000 pay cut in a federal or state government position any day rather than to accept a contractor job whereas some ass hat decides that you are disposable at the drop of a second. In private sector or as a contractor YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS, YOU ARE AT WILL PERIOD. When you are 17/18 years old living with mom & dad then it's not such a huge deal but when you are in your late 30's , 40's or 50's you cannot afford to be just "let go", laid off or fired/replaced with a new younger employee who can be paid a third of your salary . I have seen it first hand!. I have recently witnessed a guy who (as an employee in the private sector) laid off after 27 years. I'm not knocking the contract or private world if you can make all the money from it then so be it however, in hindsight security is more important in today's screwed up society.
