The ongoing war in Israel has led to a surge in tech employees leaving the industry to work in defense companies. Many employees are drawn to the defense sector due to the opportunity to contribute to the country and work on meaningful projects. The defense industry in Israel is experiencing a high volume of orders, leading to an increased need for labor. The defense companies are offering competitive salaries and conditions, narrowing the wage and benefits gap with the tech sector. However, it remains to be seen whether this trend will continue after the war ends.
