'ICE Employees Vent on Reddit, Saying They're Not Getting Paid and Still No Insurance Despite Promises' [View all]

"US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is facing an unusual wave of internal backlash after employees began publicly accusing the agency of failing to pay salaries and activate health insurance weeks after recruitment."

"Despite a historic recruitment drive that added 12,000 agents in recently, the agency's administrative backbone appears to be buckling, with employees desperate enough to turn to the Reddit to detail their struggles."

"In raw, unfiltered Reddit posts now spreading beyond law-enforcement circles, ICE officers describe going a month or more without a paycheque, struggling to secure medical cover for sick children, and watching promised bonuses quietly stall."

"One officer reported being unable to cover medical costs for a sick child due to a coverage gap, while others claim five-figure signing bonuses have not materialised. This benefits breakdown comes at a critical time as the agency ramps up enforcement activity, leaving front-line staff questioning the government's ability to manage the very workforce it spent millions to recruit."
