Yeah exactly what’s your take on this? Are certain analysts or operations roles a go and then admin types of roles are basically on pause?
I wish I had more insight on the breakdown on this, it would be pure speculation on my part.
Maybe folks with EODs are still being processed (if they didn’t get dropped…heard a lot of folks with COEs and FJOs were not onboarded). If you’re in the middle of the pipeline that’s where I think everything has essentially frozen.
This is my current thought. I had heard conflicting info several weeks back where some people thought everything was back to normal, but others had heard of processing freezes. So if I had to guess, I would bet it’s exactly what you have said.
Current EOD’s are allowed on, they are temporarily pausing those in the process, meaning they are allowed to finish the step of processing they are in currently, but not being moved forward to the next step. Im thinking that by end of May, they will have evaluated the numbers after the dust has settled, and will continue to process once again based on mission priorities. Thats all just my personal guess, lots of confusion in the building right now. It’s honestly a clusterfuck.
Just gotta be patient, I dont think this agency likes to straight up cancel processing, like MD does.
