[8] Ethan Marcotte’s homepage Posted on 18 February 2025
|
||
|
||
Moving on from 18F.
|
||
|
||
Note: This post gets into the last few weeks of American politics. If that’s
|
||
not your cup of tea, or if that’s a stressful topic for you, please feel free
|
||
to skip this one. (Also, it’s a bit long. Sorry about that.)
|
||
|
||
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
||
|
||
Last week, I finished my tenure as [9]a designer at 18F.
|
||
|
||
I want to state up front: I’m not leaving under a “[10]deferred resignation.” I
|
||
also wasn’t laid off. (Though it’s possible I almost was; more on that later.)
|
||
Instead, I resigned from my position as a product designer, submitting two
|
||
weeks’ notice…well, two weeks ago.
|
||
|
||
Before I get into any of that, I’d like to write a bit about 18F, and why it
|
||
was so hard to leave.
|
||
|
||
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
||
|
||
While I was writing this post, I thought I’d revisit [11]what I wrote when I
|
||
joined 18F last May:
|
||
|
||
1. Every single person I’ve met this week — and I’ve met quite a few!
|
||
— has been smart, kind, and really happy to be working where they do.
|
||
As someone new to the organization, that’s so encouraging to see.
|
||
2. It’s, like, remarkably energizing to be around people who are really
|
||
(really, really) passionate about making digital services work better
|
||
for people.
|
||
|
||
Honestly, that holds up. Because really, the thread here is the people working
|
||
at [12]18F, and the culture they’d built: I really, really liked showing up for
|
||
work each morning. Everyone I met at 18F was inviting and kind, and excited to
|
||
talk about what they were working on. (And just as crucially, what they did
|
||
outside work.)
|
||
|
||
And my goodness, they were helpful — which, as a new kid joining the team, I’m
|
||
always going to remember. Here’s one example: during my first month, I was
|
||
grousing about some weird little computer issue, and a random coworker just
|
||
offered to hop on a call to look at it with me. They hadn’t dealt with the
|
||
issue before, and they definitely hadn’t dealt with me before, but they thought
|
||
they might help a coworker out. And that impulse — maybe I can help someone out
|
||
— sums up so many of my interactions with everyone at 18F. They were, and are,
|
||
a remarkable group of people.
|
||
|
||
At the same time, I was proud of the work I was doing. Alongside my coworkers
|
||
at 18F, I worked with client teams to help them define requirements, refine
|
||
their designs, and build better products. I even got asked to pitch in on a
|
||
small branding project, and I’d be the last person to call myself a brand
|
||
designer. But I mention that because I was often asked to stretch myself, and
|
||
every single time I felt safe trying something new — safe, and supported by my
|
||
team. I can count on one hand the number of times over my career that I’ve felt
|
||
that kind of safety at work. I doubt that’s true of every job in government,
|
||
but I know it was true for me at 18F.
|
||
|
||
I know it sounds pat, but 18F was one of the best places I’ve ever worked.
|
||
Until it wasn’t, and I felt I had to leave.
|
||
|
||
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
||
|
||
Before I dive in, here are a couple points that’ll become relevant:
|
||
|
||
• I was considered a probationary employee because I’d been employed by the
|
||
government for less than a year. [13]Probationary employees don’t have most
|
||
of [14]the protections afforded to “full” employees, and can be dismissed
|
||
more easily.
|
||
• Due to some idiosyncrasies of how our roles were defined, many (most?)
|
||
people in my organization were legally not eligible to join a union.
|
||
|
||
So. After last year’s election, I was trying to decide whether or not I could
|
||
stay at the job. A far-right candidate had won the election^[15]1, and was
|
||
threatening to [16]reshape the government into something more partisan, more
|
||
regressive, and more autocratic. My job involved putting rectangles on screens,
|
||
and couldn’t have been further from any kind of political influence or impact.
|
||
But despite that, I didn’t know if I could let myself be part of that
|
||
government, even in a small way. (Also, [17]as you might have guessed: I was
|
||
panicking.)
|
||
|
||
During that time, a friend suggested that while things were calm at work, I
|
||
should write down some lines I wouldn’t want to cross: things I’d want to watch
|
||
out for that, if they materialized, might be a reason to leave. This was
|
||
wonderful advice, and I’m grateful to them for it. Equipped with a plan, even a
|
||
small one, I started thinking through what my lines would be.
|
||
|
||
I’ll spare you the whole list, but I’ll share three of the entries.
|
||
|
||
1. First, I need to work remotely. If the incoming administration made good on
|
||
its promise to end teleworking for federal workers, I’d likely have to find
|
||
another job. (This is, of course, [18]why “return to office” policies
|
||
happen.)
|
||
2. The second line was whether I’d be asked to work on a project that could
|
||
kill or surveil people. I know precisely what governments are capable
|
||
of — for good and for ill. But one of the things that drew me to the work
|
||
at 18F was that I understood they tried to weigh individual workers’
|
||
preferences when projects were staffed. I figured if that ever changed, and
|
||
I was asked to work on something I was morally opposed to, it’d be time to
|
||
leave.
|
||
3. The third was being asked to meet with someone who didn’t work for the
|
||
government, and being asked to discuss what I did for work.
|
||
|
||
The first two were things I looked into when I was first interviewing at 18F:
|
||
some of the basic criteria I was screening potential employers for. The third
|
||
was driven at least in part by the election, and by the billionaire they were
|
||
putting in charge of “government tech modernization.” I expected that if things
|
||
went south, he’d just try to run the same horrible [19]Twitter layoffs handbook
|
||
, and bring in employees from his other companies to rank — and cull — workers.
|
||
|
||
But it wasn’t just about that. Many things started happening to the federal
|
||
government after the inauguration, none of them good. While the administration
|
||
was conducting its vicious rollback of civil liberties and publicly funded
|
||
research, [20]this billionaire’s so-called “department” was sweeping through
|
||
[21]various federal agencies, pushing aside career civil servants and the law
|
||
to [22]hoover up [23]radioactively [24]sensitive data — our data, bought and
|
||
paid for with our tax dollars, I should add.^[25]2 And from what I’d read the
|
||
group was acting on [26]dubious legal authority, and with even less [27]
|
||
oversight or [28]transparency. I didn’t want to sit down with anyone involved
|
||
in that, and pretend like any part of their work was lawful, legitimate, or
|
||
moral.
|
||
|
||
Anyway. The list was a tremendous help; I’ll always be grateful to the friend
|
||
who suggested it. But given the speed at which government typically moves, I
|
||
assumed I’d have several months before I’d have to wrestle with any of these
|
||
questions. If not longer.
|
||
|
||
(I know, I know. I’m in the future, too.)
|
||
|
||
A few weeks ago, a member of [29]the new leadership announced they’d be
|
||
reaching out to workers to discuss their recent “technical wins”, in order to
|
||
better understand how the organization worked. The stress on “technical wins”
|
||
to a [30]cross-functional organization felt significant to me; it also felt
|
||
significant that most of the sessions seemed to be getting scheduled with folks
|
||
who’d only recently joined government — probationary employees.
|
||
|
||
Just to state the obvious, this isn’t what you do when you want to understand
|
||
how your organization works; it is what you do when you’re preparing to slash
|
||
the size of your workforce. As you might imagine, this caused no small amount
|
||
of panic across the agency, including within 18F. The new leadership hadn’t
|
||
communicated these plans to anyone before making their announcement, which left
|
||
18F’s own leaders and supervisors frantically working to fill in the
|
||
information void.
|
||
|
||
Shortly after the announcement, I started hearing about folks who’d had their
|
||
meetings, but that they didn’t meet with the director who said they’d be
|
||
conducting the interviews. Instead, they found themselves on a call with people
|
||
who wouldn’t say where they worked in government; in a few cases, some people
|
||
wouldn’t disclose their last names, or any part of their names.
|
||
|
||
And while I was watching these reports trickle in, I got a calendar invitation
|
||
for my own interview. From the first email announcing the meetings, I figured
|
||
one of my lines was in danger of being crossed; I just figured I’d have more
|
||
time.
|
||
|
||
With only a few hours before my interview, I did a quick overview of my
|
||
options. It looked like this:
|
||
|
||
1. I could do the interview.
|
||
2. I could refuse to do the interview.
|
||
3. I could delay: call out sick, take a personal day, whatever.
|
||
4. I could resign.
|
||
|
||
The first item wasn’t really an option, as sitting down with this “department”
|
||
wasn’t something I could let myself do. Refusing to participate would’ve likely
|
||
been seen as insubordination by a probationary hire; delaying would’ve just
|
||
been, well, delaying the inevitable. (It also could have been seen as
|
||
insubordination.) My math would’ve been different if I wasn’t probationary or,
|
||
even better, if I’d been allowed to join a union. But given my lack of labor
|
||
protections, and the options available before me, leaving 18F — withholding my
|
||
labor — felt like my best and only option. I called a meeting with my
|
||
supervisor, and gave two weeks’ notice.
|
||
|
||
In a terrible coda, a large number of [31]probationary employees were summarily
|
||
let go at [32]my agency just before my last day.
|
||
|
||
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
||
|
||
Leaving was the right call for me, but I’ll never feel good about the decision.
|
||
I mean, there’s the grief angle: up until about a month ago, I was working on
|
||
projects that felt like they mattered, and working alongside people who cared
|
||
about helping government services work better for the public. A few months ago,
|
||
I would’ve told you I’d like to stay there for years, which is not something
|
||
I’ve said about any other place I’ve ever worked. I am incredibly sad to leave
|
||
this job.
|
||
|
||
And look, being able to leave is, flatly, a privileged option: I can’t not work
|
||
forever, but I can not work for a little bit. Most of my coworkers didn’t have
|
||
that option. Some had just bought a house; some returned from parental leave,
|
||
only to learn they might be losing the jobs they’d counted on to support their
|
||
families.
|
||
|
||
I’m also angry at what was taken from me. At what’s being taken from all of us.
|
||
I’ve watched a wonderful job, a wonderful place to work, a wonderful team get
|
||
pulled apart by rich men in ill-fitting suits, each of them parroting the same
|
||
talking points around “realignment” and “right-sizing”.^[33]3
|
||
|
||
But what’s happening right now is not about “government efficiency,” nor is it
|
||
about “cost-cutting.” I would gently urge you to look at the net worth of the
|
||
people who are telling you otherwise. After all, there is no financial
|
||
analysis; no review of possible downsides, no weighing of potential negative
|
||
impacts. There is no discussion of what could happen if our math is wrong? Or
|
||
even more importantly, no consideration of who might be harmed?
|
||
|
||
Instead, as [34]Anil Dash predicted, the billionaire’s so-called “efficiency”
|
||
“department” is best understood as a sprawling form of [35]procurement capture,
|
||
in which a group of impossibly rich individuals are trampling over the
|
||
regulations — and the federal workers — that stand between them and a deep,
|
||
deep [36]revenue [37]stream: [38]your tax dollars. And as they do, they’re
|
||
making an explicitly fascist move to roll back rights for every marginalized
|
||
community in the country — for anyone who doesn’t look like them, or who stands
|
||
in their way.
|
||
|
||
So, yes. This is a wholesale attack on the American safety net, led by
|
||
billionaires and far-right politicians who are frighteningly comfortable with
|
||
fascism and autocracy. The last month has been called a coup by [39]politicians
|
||
, [40]researchers, and [41]watchdogs alike. I don’t want to diminish the harm
|
||
these people will do — the harm they are doing. I also don’t want to downplay
|
||
the terror of this moment, because lord knows I fucking feel it.
|
||
|
||
At the same time: what’s happening right now is also a labor story.
|
||
|
||
If the American government is slow-moving, it’s because rapid change is deadly
|
||
when you’re talking about healthcare, social security checks, market
|
||
regulations, food safety, or any of the other countless critical functions it
|
||
performs. Those federal agencies are, quite simply, infrastructure. And as [42]
|
||
Deb Chachra showed in [43]her excellent book, infrastructure is how a society
|
||
invests in its future: in its ongoing economic, societal, and political
|
||
stability.
|
||
|
||
In government, that infrastructure is built by laws, policies, and regulations.
|
||
But regulations alone do not infrastructure make. Regulations require workers
|
||
to become infrastructure: those workers who labor to understand new policies,
|
||
how best to enact them, and then work to make them legible and understandable
|
||
to the American public — and, yes, to enforce them. Without those federal
|
||
workers, and their labor, these systems fall apart. And the architects of this
|
||
assault on the federal workforce are keenly aware of that fact.
|
||
|
||
The last month has, flatly, been hell. But even so, I wouldn’t trade away my
|
||
time at 18F for anything. It was a fantastic place to work, filled with
|
||
genuine, hard-working people who cared for that work and for each other. Even
|
||
when things got rough, I saw the leaders of 18F scramble to answer their team’s
|
||
questions; I saw coworkers reaching out to support each other in countless
|
||
little ways. All while ensuring they got their project work in on time. I saw
|
||
something wonderful at work, in my work. I’m always going to be grateful for
|
||
that, and to my coworkers.

Resources
|
||
|
||
If this story’s moved you, I hope it moves you to action. Because the workers I
|
||
mention above quite literally need your support.
|
||
|
||
A few resources, if you’re interested:
|
||
|
||
• Wired has some [44]good coverage on the layoffs I described above, and [45]
|
||
on the billionaire coup more generally.
|
||
• [46]Labor Notes also has some indispensable coverage around [47]this
|
||
administration’s attacks on the federal workforce, and how organized labor
|
||
is fighting back.
|
||
• The [48]Working Families Party and [49]Emily Amick both had some great
|
||
primers on what it means to call your members of Congress, if that’s a
|
||
thing you’re able to do.
|
||
• If you’re looking for other ways to get engaged, [50]Mariame Kaba has
|
||
pulled together a massive list of [51]actions that are not protesting or
|
||
voting.
