I mean working somewhere like Qualcomm or Microsoft when you care about FOSS, democracy, and the public commons, or a weapons manufacturer for a military that invades other countries and kills innocent people in their homes.

Nah i dont agree. There are 10000s of jobs available in most places so I dont buy that. You may have to take a paycut or work a harder job but the option is there in most cases. You can always start your own little business.
Morally questionable is different that fundamental ethical disagreement. I feel that these are places you cannot work at. You’d be completely comprising your values which is fine you can technically still hold those values but it makes your values meaningless.
It would be like me saying that I’m against factory farming then working at a factory farm 40hr a week doing the exact thing I’m supposedly against. I’d have to ask myself am I really against this. Or working for ice under the trump admin. You have to admit that your value is meaningless there because when faced with the choice your values crumbed.
