Earlier quoted context omitted.

If the teams are distributed do you get your choice of geographic location?

You can work from wherever you are, and you can change locations while working for 18F. But we don't provide money for relocation. Another note that the federal pay scale is determined in part by your location. More details here https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries...

When you change locations, your pay rate is also changed, correct?
