My GUESS: the agency is targeting a specific headcount (probably 2019 levels). They probably have 8-12 months to get there, one way or another.
Note that project 2025 says nothing about big cuts to the agency.
Project 2025 also didn't dismantle USAID, yet here we are.
You obviously didn’t read it. They didn’t use the word “dismantle” but might as well have. In contrast, the small chapter on the SEC is boring and suggests minor reforms.

The managers in my group just set up meetings and sit on documents for months. They do none of the drafting or even reviewing. Never get comments from them on anything.

If you’re not an SEC person, don’t chime in about workforce reductions at the agency. You’re a speculator and adding nothing to the thread.

What’s a “group”? A division? An office? An AD group? How big is this “group” of yours, half of such is leaving? The details sorta matter here.
My “group” has 7 people. So half of it leaving does nothing.

By the time any RIF is planned and executed, all the attrition will make it moot.

Oh please Elon had several SEC actions against him well before Trump was re-elected because he’s not a big fan of following rules about market participation
