Pros

I loved my work pre-DOGE, had some brilliant coworkers

Cons

Acting leadership (Janet Petro and Vanessa Wyche) are preemptively trying to please DOGE. They got rid of my office well before the deadline for a reduction in force, and did not give us the legally mandated 60 day notice. By all accounts, Janet is super MAGA and if she ends up as Deputy Administrator, nothing will change. Even those who stayed are absolutely miserable right now and under tremendous stress-- practically everyone I worked with across the agency went into survival mode and couldn't function before I left. They are purging our nation's brightest talent and there is no coming back from this.
