[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my circle, I know at least 45 people who were either USAID Feds or contractors. All were let go last year by DOGE. All but one are still jobless. The one that got job was let go as a contractor last week. It is brutal out there.[/quote] I know a lot of people who lost their jobs when USAID closed, and maybe half have found new jobs, many of them a notch down what they are capable of doing and it's been brutal. Most of those who found jobs left DC--a few found positions in state/local government, at universities doing general college administration stuff, or at non-international development focused NGOs. Those who were in public health have been worst off...between the closing of USAID and those fleeing the incompetence in FDA/HHS etc, there's so many people in that field without jobs.[/quote]
