View Online IMMEDIATE RELEASE Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg Issues Memo on Workforce Acceleration & Recapitalization Incentive Implementation April 8, 2025 Attributable to Eric Pahon, Spokesman for the Deputy Secretary of Defense: The Department is expanding its approach to workforce optimization — broadening the aperture from right-sizing and structural efficiencies to also supercharging our civilian workforce. This memo underscores a new layer of focus: ensuring we recognize, retain, and reward the people who are delivering the greatest mission impact. Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg is asking leaders across the Department to use bonuses and awards not just as a tool — but as a strategy. A strategy to attract, empower, and celebrate extraordinary civilian talent at a time when their contributions are more vital than ever. It's a clear signal: high performance and national security impact are not only recognized—they're valued. As we continue to streamline and modernize the Department's structure over the next 12 to 18 months, this initiative helps ensure that our best people remain at the center of the mission. That's how we drive results at speed and scale — and how we build a force that's faster, smarter, and more lethal. You can read the Deputy Secretary's memo here.
