Hey there SDN,
Anybody here on the forums know the approximate pay for a FDA pharmacist working at CDER or in their drug information or OPDP division?
A google search & USA Jobs search turned up that they start at GS-12, which can vary from $62k to $80k, with an additional 24% bump in cost of living expenses at Washington DC, to a total of ~77k-99k. But the variance is definitely large since there's 10 steps between the GS scales.

Stated that pharmacists start at ~44k at an 0-3 level. So definitely a lot of confusion around.
I know that pay will differ depending on training, whether you've had a residency, etc, but anybody have any approx/anectodal numbers on how much a pharmacist at the FDA would make and what division they wok at?
Appreciate any responses =)
