A comment on The rise and fall of 18F. Parent comment
* Job security only for your 2 year term (unless you renew by another 2 for a max of 4 years). After that, you need to leave government service
* Health care coverage was similar to major tech companies in the Bay Area. However, vision / dental benefits were worse.
* Pension benefits only start after 3 years of government service, so most working for 18F will likely not receive these.
But I agree that for other government positions these are good perks.
