I talk to uni students on a regular basis and many of them unfortunately do not give a single fuck about what the companies they are trying to get hired at do. All the highest paying jobs in engineering are at ghoul factories like Google and Boeing, so if they aren't enthusiastic, they're at least making up whatever excuse they need to for it to be okay. Like "I'm just trying to be the data guy, I won't be working on missiles, so it's fine".

I know a number of former engineering and physics majors who changed major after developing a conscience. Most of them sefinitely don't care though. I have a comrade in aerospace engineering and they refer to their peers as "knowledgable but apathetic about their contribution to slaughter at best".
