Exclusive-OPM staffers fired en masse on conference call as part of Musk purge, sources say
By Tim Reid
All probationary staff at the Office of Personnel Management were fired on Thursday in a conference call and given less than an hour to leave the building in Washington, two sources familiar with the dismissal told Reuters.
About 100 people were on the call inside OPM, the U.S. government’s human resources agency. Staff on probation were told that because they had not taken the Trump administration’s buyout offer, they were being fired, a union source and an OPM staff member said.
