To the contrary. Hiring contractors for non-governmental duties allows for greater flexibility in staffing, accompanied by lower benefits costs.
This is plain ignorant. Contractors cost a lot more.
+1 plus temporary on/off staffing is always leas efficient with time spent getting folks up to speed and inevitable costly mistakes made. It is constantly working with an overpaid new hire. Not efficient.

Absolutely not. As someone who has had to be part of hiring contractors, we pay way more than if we could just hire on the fed scale.
+1 Contractors make more than Feds. Always.

Yep. This is the story. Already we have social security using X for communications.
So much for Dems to seize on if they can get their act together.

No benefits or retirement should mean less costly.
You shouldn’t be posting about things you know nothing about.
I know quite a bit about State Dept hires and their benefits.

+1 Fewer longtime federal workers with golden parachutes.
You guys are morons. You’ve bought into a massive lie. Federal workers don’t have golden parachutes or great retirement.
Compared to the average American worker? Yes, they do.

No. You hire the people who were fired for 1.5 x their former salary play 65% over head but the work does not get done.
Feds have been consoling themselves that they’ll probably get fired and then rehired at 150% of their former pay. This exact scenario happened in previous government “downsizings.” It’s all such a farce.

To the contrary. Contractors cost the government far more than federal employees. It is a major source of so-called “government bloat.”
This was what was predicted from the beginning, btw. They are going to bring back many of the same people who were feds, and it will cost the government 2-3 times what it did before. But those contracting companies will be happy.

Stop confidently opining about something you have no clue about. Are you even involved in the government contracting field?
