Most Astronomers work at Universities and Laboratories run by Universities (Chandrasekhar X-ray Observatory, administered for NASA by Harvard) and NASA Facilities ( Godard & JPL just to name a few).
Other people who support astronomy research (Engineers, physicists, mathematicians, janitors) work in private aerospace businesses (Lockheed Martin for example). Someone has to make the components for the Chandrasekhar X-ray Observatory. Otherwise they also work where astronomers work.

I studied Astronomy and I worked most of my life in the semiconductor industry. But the real astronomers are almost all college professors who also do research. Very few, if any, work for NASA.

You can teach, work in the industry, national labs, do research at those type of places, write, etc.
Depending on what skills you picked up while studying astronomy, you can do a variety of things that pay you money.
You can always go back to make burgers and fries too.

These people are good candidates for jobs at a bank or in the stock market because they know how to crunch numbers very well.
