IRS Job Cuts Target Probationary Employees: 5 Strategies for Stability
After weeks of reshaping the federal workforce with RIFs, VERA, and layoffs, DOGE has now turned its focus to the IRS and will reportedly fire around 6,000 employees across the nation. Similar to other agencies, like the EPA, these firings will mostly target employees still in their probationary period since they have fewer workplace protections, though it could impact others too. We’ve heard from hundreds of federal workers, and we understand their concerns. They’re watching thousands of others suddenly find themselves without jobs, and are worried they might be next to be eliminated. We take these concerns seriously, and we’ve collected a list of ways you can protect yourself – especially if you’re a probationary employee.
