I mean, he's got a pretty important job

So did the CDC directors before him, who were compensated without a Title 42 exemption.

Just doesn't seem that out-of-whack to me. Seems like a reasonable paycheck for the position.

Agree that it is more on par with private sector. And that the job is important. But it is also considered a public service. My understanding from the article is the exemption is where they can’t attract a suitable candidate otherwise. Is that the case here?
-
Also, will staff clinicians and researchers at the CDC, who actually perform the bulk of the work, be similarly upgraded in their pay scale? Or they should be the ones willing to work for less than market value for the greater good?

Everywhere I've ever worked, the less you do, the more you get paid. Definitely isn't a merit-based economy.

I don’t know if that has been my experience exactly. But I understand the sentiment!

Be thankful you never went into local journalism!

Our national debt is 21 trillion dollars, this seems minute. I’m sure these are the same politicians that continuously vote to increase their own salaries.

Remember the time is our history when civil servants worked to better our country - regardless of low salaries.

Tulsa , Oklahoma superintendent of schools makes $325k and the HEAD of the CDC only makes $375k. That is sad on so many levels. It should be double that or more.
