Oh i would believe them. I'm a federal employee (for now), we're considered to have "great benefits" that are actually less than the bare minimum in many first world countries; we also get less pay (at least in IT) compared to private sector to "justify" these benefits. The benefits they are constantly chipping away it while also taking more out of our paychecks each year with raises below actual cost of living and inflation.
In Canada the federal government ends up having to hire contractors for anything IT related because the pay is crap when on the inside, in the end it costs more than just increasing IT's pay to be somewhat competitive
