Of course, it's more than just losing their jobs. What employer would hire someone with a target on their back from the President of the United States?
Their entire careers are screwed.

Good. Cannot imagine less efficient workers than the people who sat on their ass for four years and allowed Trump to get back in charge.
Nothing of the sort happened. From Jack Smith's report:
A significant challenge that the Office faced after Mr. Trump's indictment was his ability and willingness to use his influence and following on social media to target witnesses, courts, and Department employees, which required the Office to engage in time-consuming litigation to protect witnesses from threats and harassment.
Volume I of that report is 174 pages of investigative findings, and we haven't seen volume II yet.
The idea that they were just lazy is completely ignorant of how long even normal federal cases take, let alone going against a former President with a penchant for stirring up a mob in his favor.
Those people did their jobs. The rest of the system failed them.
The system is designed to fail them.

Pretty sure that was all Garland.
Sue him. Inundate him with lawsuits regardless of the fact he's already gotten away with being a criminal so that the courts are forced to give attention to the numbers of wrongfully terminated gov't employees
