Average yearly turnover is 6%

The buyouts amount to “about 3% of the 2.4 million civilian federal workforce. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had previously set the goal at 5% to 10%.l

I assume there was massive front loading there.

I would bet most had jobs lined up.

given the RTO order too this deal failing to break even normal churn numbers is pretty funny, I know of a number of people that are taking it simply because it wasn't a reasonable choice to return to the office, 2+ one way commutes and such.

Lots of further layoffs coming (depending on the courts). I’d also expect them to try and screw people out of future benefits.

They want it to be painful employees and for them to give up and leave or be dysfunctional.

Oh for sure this was just the first salvo, just seemed like buyout and RTO combo was their best leverage and everything else is more complicated

BTW, Trump pumped this number of "resigning" employees to 3% with a sweet deal for older employees - or it would not even be 3%. It's more of his cons on the public as he spends the gov's money.

Employees 50YO - 56YO (min retirement age: 57) were offered early retirement and 6 months of free pay.

The people who took the deal probably have a better gig already lined up.

Yuuuuuup

There's a rumor that some people got on the list inadvertently (by replying with a question) so the final number who actually sign the deal may be even lower.
