Question re: salary rules for lateral within Agency
Hi all, I'm a current federal employee. I'm at step 7 of my grade, at a large agency. I'm considering whether to apply for a position that I saw at a different component within the same agency. Obviously many pros and cons for such a change even in normal circumstances. But aside from that -- I noticed that the job opening is a ladder position that tops out at my current grade, so far so good. But the max salary dollar amount they've provided happens to be at step 5 of my grade. I don't know the rules around what would happen to my salary, assuming that I was offered it and accepted it at my current grade (top of ladder). Would I be allowed to/ entitled to my current step? Or would I be required to drop down to the step 5 bc the job posting says so? Or are there other factors that might come into play, that make the answer more of a "depends" scenario -- and if so, depends on what?Thanks for anyone who knows the rules around this!
