I was seriously considering government work, but they all seem to want TS clearances. I’m simply not interested in the process. Do you have any recommendations for anywhere that doesn’t have this requirement?
Yep, same. Somewhere relatively stable and doing a public good sounds great, but I'm not bothering with security clearances or the myriad other red tape required at almost all of those roles, especially for almost always significantly less comp than the private sector :\

I work in government and government adjacent contracting. We need people badly right now.

I'll believe this need is genuine when salaries for government employed/contracted software engineers are anywhere close to market rates.
Money from the lavish contracts won't reach workers anyway, so why bother? https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-arrivecan-a...
