This is correct.

I live in Tucson and am quite familiar with Raytheon (having been recruited and know numerous employees as they are the biggest employer here). They are not going to be hiring remote developers from Ireland. In all likelihood, they will not be hiring any remote developers anywhere, unless those people will be relocating to Tucson and being on premise once this calms down.

Hmm. How are environments like this handling the WFH status quo?

My completely naive/distant presumption of sites like these is that they are fundamentally incompatible with the security concessions inherent to remote work.

What toomuchtodo said. Plus, some of those places fought it as long as they could.

Critical staff live onsite. Everyone else goes home and doesn’t work.
