I've only had one drop pod attack so far, I lost a generator and two turrets in the middle of the night but didn't take any casualties. I have the most fun with raids that cause property damage but don't get my peeps killed, so those are fun.
Sieges are the worst because they force you take take losses regardless. Dealing with them basically boils down to how much infrastructure damage you're willing to take versus the kind of a force you can muster at the current moment.
Also, they're bugged. I had a siege come in pretty close to my base. When my force got to the siegers they sat around soaking damage without reacting for a short amount of time. It wasn't until the steel/food drop pods landed and the sandbag outlines popped up for a split second that they cancelled construction and rushed the group.
