Yes, Autistic people can work - although those who are severely effected may not be able to work, and those who are less severely effected may be restricted in what work they can do.

Job interviews are also heavily biased against Autistic people, they focus on neurotypical behaviour such as eye contact and body language, interviews also often include role play and knowing when to hold back honesty, all of which are a struggle for Autistic people.
