You don’t have to be on the internet 24/7 to know this. State employees are paid using tax dollars, therefore their salaries have been public knowledge FOREVER!

they make like 50k right out of the academy, maybe more now. being a trooper is no joke. best of the best make it. 4year college degrees dont come cheap either. just like the military, get your 4 year degree and go as an officer and you make alot more than the normal crowd I.e city cops, or in the case of the military, the enlisted. ---

Could be bad in the long run. nah… its actually cheaper to hire contractors then FTEs or else they wouldn’t do it. State isn’t THAT stupid. Benefits and retirement cost a ton. Having consultant on contracts eliminates long term costs to the state. It makes sense. Only people that would whine are current state employees that claim that they do that same work as us for much less money… sorry buds, it aint true, cuz if it was then we wouldn’t be here :D. I love when I overhear the state workers here talk about how there are too many consultants on our project. I’ve yet to meet a competent programmer that is a state employee. COBOL doesn’t count, haha! state workers get a bad rap cause the stereotype is true. I do feel bad for those that actually do work. Hopefully you can score good on those tests and get a promotion (what a joke that is). [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/see-how-much-nys-pays-its-employees-contractors/241230.md?page=2)
