BAH folks. Is the 2500 layoffs including the rolling ones that have happened? Also I heard it was primarily civil right? Our headcount is under 10K so 25% across civil is wild

Indirectly, yes, given some of the people who were working on EEO-related contracts…

Probably my close to 2k at this point - will likely peak around 3-4k once the administration has its way with agencies outside Civil. Total layoffs in DC area from consulting firms is going to jump yet again in the next month as Doge targets the next 10 large businesses. This has all impacted everything from home sales, small businesses closing, retail stores getting close to closing, summer camps canceling, etc. just try to look for a job without 1000 applicants on linked in. We’re in for a rough patch in DC area for next 3-6 months or more.

It’s going to be longer the 3-4 months. He is just getting started. Hegseth said that he was going to cut $5B every year, for the next four years. From the DOD budget. And Trump wants to gut his agencies and contractors are going to be core to those cuts.

Hi Sharks 🦈,

Need some suggestions: My current company is on a layoff spree and 2 rounds are already done and I can foresee another round coming very soon.

While I am trying to switch to other companies, I’m not able to reveal the real reason from my side for the job change, as if I say, it’s because of layoff fears than it’ll reduce my negotiation power.

What other reasons can I give as I’ve just completed 9 months here and it’s too soon for any other company to take me in.
