While I agree with your point, I don't agree with the idea, that the engineers there are some Dickensian exploited workers struggling to feed their starving family. Those are white collar middle class employees mostly.

How many other Aerospace companies are out hiring right now?

The answer? Not many. The industry is highly consolidated at this point. So the competition that normally ensures workers can vote with their feet isn't there.

So... Yeah. When you're already hired by the biggest actor in town, the ethical calculus changes whether you want to admit it or not.

How many would you consider a reasonable amount for competition? There's 15 showing up on a cursory Indeed search, not to mention civil service entities that hire AEs
