In 2025, President Donald Trump’s return to the White House coincided with a sweeping departure from the federal workforce, with about 317,000 employees leaving through firings, resignations and retirements by year’s end, according to the Office of Personnel Management. A crackdown on diversity initiatives, new performance pressures and uncertainty over job security left morale deeply shaken, as personal stories illustrate the human toll.
A poll by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) shows South Korean workers have cut their hours by an average of 8.4 per week, or 17.8 percent overall, thanks to generative AI platforms. More than half of respondents use such tools daily, with the highest adoption in the information and telecommunications sector.
