PAY BANDS As long as management are human beings you are going to have the same people getting the pay raises reguardless of what they do whether it is right or wrong. We have just started getting away from that sort of thing and now I feel that it will return.Also people who work in lower cost of living areas will be penalized to pay for people who work in the high cost of living areas within the same localities within the same agency. If that is the case then more thought should be given to move the Head Quarters of agencies into low cost of living areas first. Then pay band employees later. Budgets would go farther , if you move out of D.C. metropolitan areas and to southern West Virginia or Louisiana where the cost of office space is low to keep the overhead low, then budgets would go farther.
