Why the Musk 5 bullets are still enforced at most agencies?

There are still Musk loyalists and tech bros in federal jobs, both appointed and career.

You could go work for ICE. If you have no soul.

I don’t think so. I’m so unbelievably swamped with work. Easily 10x the amount of work I had last year (and we’ve always been a very busy, high performing office). It’s unsustainable. I do an incredible job but I’m not Superman. And because I’m falling behind, it’s affecting other programs around us and the public.

I’m also worried about worker retention because my employees are getting increasingly bitter about the workload we all have. We all prided ourselves on what a great job we did, but now we just get yelled at daily. I need at least a dozen more employees to keep up.

USDA has a bunch of openings.

GSA will hire

Maybe but I can’t we anyone other than MAGAs loyalists wanting to work for an admin that hates its own employees so much. Not to mention the extreme lack of flexibility, which had been a major recruiting factor.

On a case by case basis, yes there will be more hiring. There will continue to be attrition through retirement and resignation, and some agencies have critical staff needs.
The current rule of hiring only 1 person for 4 people lost is not helping.

They are already hiring in divisions that got decimated by DOGE. DOJ environmental section has postings got attorneys. But it's a horrible place to work now.

Probably not going to see huge #s outside of Adm priorities like ICE and supporting functions at DHS, maybe some DoD etc.

Yes this. I am a mission essential civilian position and my unit has onboarded 2 GSs and 2 contractors since the inauguration. Same job series.

Weak or toady agency heads.

Not sure, but we're backlogged with work. Apparently, they don't care- OT was cut too.

DoD. Particularly Navy.

Besides DHS, etc., will other agencies see any hiring? Or nothing for the entire Trump presidency?
