DOGE officials had little background in government, joined for short assignments, and so might have learned much from fellow technologists who had been exposed to government’s problems up close. But this potential for collaboration was never realized. Once civic tech person noted:

Every person who comes to government with no experience inside has a dawning as they start to figure out how things work (or don’t, depending on your perspective). That naiveté can be useful. It lets you ask questions that someone with more knowledge might not. But naiveté, in combination with a complete lack of moral compass, disrespect for incumbent public servants and the expertise they hold, along with being empowered to maliciously and indiscriminately cut the funds and resources needed to deliver public services will only lead to harm.
