Agency will technically be down 35% by the ends of this (full staff is 6900 positions), with up to 40% retirement eligible by 2027. Unless they are planing to not have any support/admin staff, I am not sure where else they can cut. |
| Anyone know what the cuts to DITcwill look like? Obviously InfoSec is safe, but DIT is ridiculously large and very “well tenured.” |
That rationale hasn't stopped other agencies from a second round of rifs |
Why would they need admin staff. They can contract out for specific functions, and automation, ai agents can fill it in, and they can have regular staff do their own paperwork. It’s not like the 40 hour work week is sticking around, expect private office hours of 8-6 min |
So, law firm functions without admin staff? No paralegals, etc? Auditors survive without and admin/supprt? |
Right, so keep supporting the race to the bottom. |
I can think of one division that can very easily be contracted out. Individual units that they service can do the work. Much $ can be saved this way. It’s just not a needed unit. And can be cut. The entire operation. Administrative unit. |
| Many corrupt managers at the fdic. Why are f they targeted for RIFS? |
What exactly are admin staff doing for audtiors? Paralegals are a bit of a stretch to call admin staff, but a lot of what they do has been automated away. Don’t list mission critical jobs and say “don’t they need admin” — list what the admin staff would actually be doing for them. Then you might have a point. |
| The admin staff at financial regulators is very bloated and they are overpaid. They should be getting rid of these people as opposed to actual examiners. |
+1. Absolutely. |
| Many middle and upper managers in administrative divisions who are awful. |
| Someone has an axe to grind? |
Agree but I heard the Admin Unit and DIT are barely getting hit. |
Well you should tell the FDIc that because they are targeting paralegals. In the context of auditors (or in this case, examiners), admin are those who support the examiners, including analysts. If you think admin in this context is HR, DIT and admin assistants, you are incorrect. We have very few admin assistants at FDIC and those that exist usually are assigned to a very high level person and are protected. In this context, admin/support = paralegals and analysts. |
