Summary

The appointment of former Tesla engineer Thomas Shedd as head of the Technology Transformation Services (TTS) has disrupted the agency responsible for U.S. government IT infrastructure.

TTS employees report being summoned to sudden meetings with unidentified individuals lacking government credentials, raising concerns over security and oversight.

Shedd, aligned with Musk’s government efficiency initiatives, emphasizes cost-cutting and tech adoption.

Workers fear the changes could expose sensitive data or compromise government operations, while confusion grows over the agency’s direction under new leadership.
