Date: January 31st, 2026 8:20 AM Author: marvelous disrespectful field Long-time BIGFED employee here. Not going to share too much, but I currently work at one of the more benign agencies. However, an opportunity with the DoD is available that would basically max out how much I could realistically make in BIGFED. The problem is that I don't want to support the war system, which is why I've avoided the DoD and IC.
Don't have the details on what I'd do at the DoD specifically yet. The money is alluring because BIGFED doesn't pay all that well but comes with job security.
The pay increase is large enough that it would have a relatively substantial effect on how much I can save/invest and thereby retire early, which is one of my primary goals in life.
I can only see myself working for the DoD if it's some benign role where I'm not supporting anything related to war/weapons/foreign policy/etc. but rather helping out active duty people and/or veterans outside of any insane foreign policy goals of the US (the key reason I've avoided the DoD and IC).

Date: January 31st, 2026 2:57 PM Author: Wonderful deranged parlor Not supporting the war system, but directly working for the government that literally runs the war system and takes up like 25% of the budget when you consider all supporting elements, is quite the dumb take tbh.

Date: January 31st, 2026 8:30 AM Author: Honey-headed motley ticket booth philosopher-king The DOD is huge, the largest employer in the US. They do a lot more than what you hear about in the news because it's so huge, and a good chunk of it is probably far-removed from what you're concerned about. Figure out what exactly the job entails and decide from there. Most likely it's some pointless government job with no relevance. And don't military contractors do a lot of the dirty work anyway?

Date: January 31st, 2026 9:27 AM Author: Honey-headed motley ticket booth philosopher-king Breh you're not going to be involved in the shit you're worried about; that's all top secret (or Q clearance with the DOE). IIRC millions of people have secret clearances and it's NBD. Sounds like some lame-ass job where your employment there will have absolutely no impact on foreign policy/war/whatever you're concerned about. Up to you if you're fine with that. Personally I'd take that fed job security and just quit if it really keeps you up at night (which I doubt it would, given what you've shared).

Date: January 31st, 2026 9:24 AM Author: marvelous disrespectful field I'll admit I'm a lib, but I just haven't even seriously thought about working for the DoD because I'm not supportive of nearly all wars.

So I guess I could myself working for the DoD if it's just "a job" and nothing related to war efforts.

DoD is big and there's opportunity obviously, but it has unstable leadership and a sudden bloat that's going to make a new wave of oversight inevitable in the months/years to come (regardless of who is in charge in '28).
