my older sister is going on 30 years of federal service, and as a recent widow I pray for her daily to win the lottery or get recruited out by a think tank; i've had enough horror stories of the inner workings of the federal government to last a lifetime

Idk, they’ll likely be moved into other non-DEI roles.

I'm nervous but very curious to see what happens. A lot of rumors and fear mongering is going around, but I think it doesn't make sense to get stressed or upset until something happens. That being said, I'm brushing up my resume just in case. I really hope this doesn't happen!!

Wonder how everyone feels about this post 3 weeks into the Trump presidency. Feel like the fear mongers were correct.

HR is asking me to expect something on top of the current offer I am holding.

The opening is for L8. How much offer I should expect from mastercard??
