As I mentioned in my earlier posts, unless you are grossly underpaid in your private sector, it's not likely that Civil Service would give you a raise. At best, they would match your existing pay. In most circumstances, expect some pay cuts.
On the bright side, if you do perform well and is paid below your "peers" in your new organization, highlight this in your next confirmation appraisal and your next promotion may come sooner than expected.
