The Defense Intelligence Agency, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, CIA, and NSA have provided their employees with a deferred resignation offer as part of a broader effort led by the Trump administration to downsize the federal workforce. Employees are required to decide by February 6 whether to accept this offer, allowing them to remain on payroll with full benefits until September 30. This comes on the heels of an earlier phishing scare involving test emails sent to employees, raising concerns about operational security amidst uncertain morale within the intelligence community.
The proposal, which has been triaged through the Defense Department, asks the IC workforce to make a decision on whether to take the offer by Feb. 6.
The CIA and NSA also offered their workforce a deferred resignation, extending a similar offer to the Defense Intelligence Agency and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.
As directed by OPM and DoD, the deferred resignation program is available to eligible NSA employees, aiming to reduce federal workforce during the Trump administration.
Federal employees, suspicious of earlier test emails, were later sent a deferred resignation offer through the same system, raising concerns over communication security.
