Pentagon Plans Major Reduction in Civilian Workforce

Mar 19, 2025 | Government, Military, Security

The Pentagon plans to reduce its civilian workforce by up to 60,000 jobs as part of the Trump administration’s strategy to enhance government efficiency and reduce spending. Key points include:

  • Up to 60,000 civilian positions may be cut, with a reduction goal of 5% to 8% in a workforce exceeding 900,000.
  • The cuts will occur gradually, eliminating approximately 6,000 jobs monthly.
  • A federal judge has temporarily halted cuts affecting probationary workers, claiming their terminations were unlawful.
  • There is a focus on ensuring these cuts do not compromise military readiness or national security jobs.
