== job security ==

Some knowledgeable contributor needs to write about the most critical feature (other than rank and pay) that distinguishes the SES from the GS cadre.

That is job security.

When the SES was instituted in the 1970s, the idea was that the SES would have higher pay, but be much easier to remove if they failed to perform.

Looking at the VA scandal now, it appears that the Secretary is powerless to remove SESers. What is the correct story? A good answer would make this article much more useful to concerned readers.

Also, when you talk about the depts and agency's that are exempt from the SES schedule, you should add that most of those on the list have equivalent or partly equivalent schedules. For example the CIA and NSA have the SIS, which is the same thing under a different name.

job security

Some knowledgeable contributor needs to write about the most critical feature (other than rank and pay) that distinguishes the SES from the GS cadre.

That is job security.

When the SES was instituted in the 1970s, the idea was that the SES would have higher pay, but be much easier to remove if they failed to perform.

Looking at the VA scandal now, it appears that the Secretary is powerless to remove SESers. What is the correct story? A good answer would make this article much more useful to concerned readers.

Also, when you talk about the depts and agency's that are exempt from the SES schedule, you should add that most of those on the list have equivalent or partly equivalent schedules. For example the CIA and NSA have the SIS, which is the same thing under a different name.
