“A senior administration official told NBC News that they expect 5%-10% of the federal workforce to quit, which, they estimate, could lead to around $100 billion in savings.”
If they quit now, and are paid for another 8 months, how does that save any money?
Similarly, if they quit and need to be replaced, you’re going to spend more money hiring and training the replacement, so for 8 months you’re paying double salary, one for the person who quit and one for their replacement…

If you don’t have another job lined up don’t quit your job

With the bills proposed by the house right now federal workers won’t have great benefits for long. Benefits are better on the county level in many cases already.
