The White House has offered federal workers the option to voluntarily resign by February 6, providing financial support through September. This initiative, following the Trump administration's push to revamp the workforce, has ignited mixed reactions among employees ranging from defiance to uncertainty. While some workers express anger and hopelessness over the offer, citing it undermines their commitment and affects public service, others are resolute in their decision not to resign, emphasizing solidarity among their colleagues amid the upheaval.
Shock and outrage. Hopelessness, suspicion, and defiance. Federal workers say they feel a mix of all of the above and more after payout offers landed in their inboxes late Tuesday.
If they decide to leave, they will be exempt from in-person work, according to the email, and will receive pay and benefits through September unless they decide to leave earlier.
