[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m contemplating applying to Fed jobs. And I worked as a contractor and have friends still in the system, so understand everything that is going on right now. I think Feds underestimate how ruthless the private sector is, especially nowadays. I would gladly take 40 hours work weeks and being able to take sick time/PTO without worrying that I’ll be first to be targeted for a laid off. [/quote] Actually you will be the first one targeted for a layoff during your probationary period. [/quote] DP here. I’m a fed and I don’t see them pulling a mass probationary firing again. That was a stupid DOGE thing. I mean it’s so hard to hire new people now, why would they waste time firing them? [/quote] My agency is going through a reorg and entire divisions will be laid off. They got the easy low hanging fruit, but more layoffs are coming. Why do you think OPM changed the seniority rule for RIF? Sheets and giggles?[/quote]
