So, should they hire 10% more NSF employees to be even more efficient?
Or is it your position that NSF has optimal number of employees for managing $9B of grants and adding one more or subtracting one would make NSF less efficient?
If you could provide chain of reasoning that led you to opine that the current number of NSF employees is the optimal one?
- snailmailstare 2y agoYes, changing the plan from one arrived at by people familiar with the problem sure sounds like something that would need either talking to those people or engaging with the problem for months or years.
- advisedwang 2y agoOver the years NSF, like any organization, has attempted to staff completely to their needs and faced pushback from those that control the funding. Of course that doesn't result in perfect results, but it is somewhat connected to needed staffing levels. A mandate that was written to apply to every agency in the government is totally disconnected from appropriate staffing.
