flag Pentagon faces workforce cuts, targeting probationary employees to reduce bureaucracy.

flag The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is obtaining lists of probationary employees from the Pentagon for potential workforce cuts. flag This move affects new civilian hires but exempts uniformed military personnel. flag Similar reductions have occurred in other federal agencies, like the National Nuclear Security Administration, where probationary employees with high-level clearances were initially fired but later reinstated. flag Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth supports these cuts, aiming to reduce bureaucracy and focus more on warfighters. flag President Donald Trump has tasked Elon Musk with overseeing these reductions, though Musk is now serving as his senior adviser.
