[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m an Ivy League grad who entered work at defense contractors. Please tell him to not do this. I came into industry pre-internet and was a middle class fish out of water at my Ivy, so no one really warned me what a bad idea it was (in fact in engineering circles Raytheon is sort of legendary, but that is based upon past innovation not present). He will be so disappointed with outcomes, and the other employees who trained at VT or UMd which are feeder schools for the industry across many fields, he will have a huge skills mismatch and deficiency.
