[quote=Anonymous][quote]It’s going to lead to a lot of brain drain. There’s already a lot of turn over by smart, hard working people using government jobs as a stepping stone, but some have stayed longer due to the generous telework policies. Those that can will jump to private sector gigs that are still offering hybrid and remote. Vacancies will be harder to fill and they’ll end up hiring worse candidates. So I guess business as usual for the DC government…[/quote] This is exactly right. OMB knows they need to make it a priority to recruit, train and retain IT expertise and even talked about a special rate boost to prevent the brain drain but it isn't happening. My agency has already lost a lot of IT people over the last few years and I know that if they come down hard with RTO a lot more will bail, myself included.[/quote]
