I don’t think there have been any actual RIF’s yet. But as I understand it, the goal is to get to whatever the targeted cuts are (8%?) by the end of May, as in “out the door” so it’s coming soon.

There are some voluntary incentives out there, and I just read that DoD is reopening the Deferred Resignation Program (AKA the “fork”), but I suspect there are many people who will simply refuse to participate in any voluntary program.
