well clearly the leadership (GOP, DOGE as advised by industry) doesn’t agree with you.

I’m at a different FinReg but I literally have never had any support from any admin staff. Unless by “admin” you mean IT, security and facilities?

That’s your experience.

You are not doing enough high value work to be free from the essential admin tasks

OP - emails came out today. I was offered DRP only and my email said very specifically my position is not slated for elimination. My coworker who was offered a VSIP was told explicitly in the email that their position is subject to elimination.

From what I understand, if everyone offered VSIP/VERA, there is a small possibility some offers will be withdrawn. But those who were told they would get an offer were explicitly told their position would be eliminated and to take the offer seriously in that context.

Is reorganizing to combine the occ, fdic, and frb still a thing or is that no longer a plan?

Totally off the table. Bessent gave a speech 6-8 weeks ago that tossed water on that idea.

+1 agree from a former employee who watched these people do whatever they wanted while getting $250,000

The admin staff do not deserve the inflated salaries that should only go to more educated employees like attorneys. Contractors will do the same admin jobs for much less $.

Seriously? I get contractor cost estimates and they typically bill 3-4X as many hours as it takes me to do the same work. And charge $175-250/hour. And they don’t know the casework, which means frequent errors, which the agency pays to fix.

Do you mean sort of office admins who arrange travel, time cards and that sort of thing? I’m at a different FinReg and trying to work with or manage them is a nightmare
as they’re all largely a certain minority class with poor work ethic and attitudes.

Library staff are admin. They are well educated and go the extra mile to help and are treated like garbage in these places.
