I mean, if your ethics are for sale, just skip to the end and work for Meta so you can get dat 200k new grad comp package.
Companies with ongoing military contracts may be much more lucrative in the long run.
The pay is shit or at most on par compared to tons of web dev jobs in e commerce etc. I make more aligning divs than my friends in aerospace and defense who are leveraging their advanced degrees. Abandoning your morals hardly even pays ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To be fair, aligning divs was historically a labor intensive process. Damn kids with their flexbox don't even know...
Companies, yes. Employees, no.
Is meta looking to hire a bunch of MechEs?
This would be more in the realm of CS
I applied to LockMart and they rejected me :(
For the last time, a picture of yourself riding a missile naked is not a job application. We are also seriously concerned about how you were able to obtain a missile in the first place.

Prior work experience
Same here. Rejoice! For we have been saved from the MIC.
Taking your own fighting jet is a huge help though.
Most fresh grads just want to make enough of a living wage to one day afford a house. Morals can be fucking expensive.
It very very much depends on the country you're from. In Ukraine a better slogan would probably be "my moral compass led me to Lockheed Martin"
Some people would do much worse for even less…. Xd
I saw a video about some incompetent, alcoholic spy the CIA hired that sold state secrets to the KGB that got 12 of his fellow agents killed all for the incredible sum of $25,000.
After all I've been through I probably would too. I'm very tired of being poor as fuck.
I'm just very tired of being.
I'm just very tired
I feel like maybe poverty shouldn't be escaped by perpetuating the bombing of children, no?
Don't worry, the offer isn't really on the table for me to begin with.
They're not wrong. still a difference.
direction is totally fucked though.
Does it come in Google?
This implies you had one at some point.
In 2016 I started an entry level job in cybersecurity for a small Family-owned defense contractor making $55k. 7 years later in 2023 I'm working at one of the Big 4 defense contractors and I'm making $173K.
My degree is in criminal justice from a State School.
As long as you have a 4 year degree, can obtain Secret clearance, and can get CompTIA Security+ any defense contractor on the East or West Coast will take you.
Yes, I am a cog in the military-industrial complex which makes me part of the problem and not the solution, but I live comfortably and my family is happy, so I'll sacrifice my morals for them.
How does one find a defense contractor job?
Step one: Throw away moral compass.
I at least appreciate the great stuff they make for the Ace Combat series...
Although maybe we could design cool jet fighter assets without designing multi-billion-dollar real ones first...
My moral compass is calibrated to "Mad Scientist"
Evil Minion is a pretty good entry-level for that position

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
