Despite the aggressive influence from Capitol Hill to hold VA employees’ accountable, McDonald feels that the few who will be reprimanded do not represent the majority. “We can’t fire our way to excellence. Over my 33 years in the private sector, I’ve never encountered an organization where firing people was a measure of leadership.” He goes on to state that the VA has fired 3,750 employees over the two years he has led the department.
