24 w 3 years of IAM experience. 100k remote. My job is boring and I don’t want to regret the path I’m setting myself on. To those with more wisdom than me, where would you navigate yourself at 24 to maximize a “fun” job in tech with good earnings?

Stay where you are but take advantage of Deloitte’s resources to upskill on their dime. Look at whatever online MS programs they recommend through their learning platform as well as SANS courses

What you find ‘fun’ or ‘boring’ often comes down to how much you’re learning, growing, and being challenged. A job is what you make of it — not just through the opportunities you’re given, but the ones you seek out.

What parts of a job do you actually enjoy? What parts do you dislike? What drew you to IAM in the first place? What drives you?

That is what you must answer yourself to properly discern what guides your next move. Do know that every job has parts that we don’t like or are considered dull, but the key is to determine whether the core of the work you do aligns with that enjoyment and that drive.

I will also say building useful skills and staying open to new opportunities can put you in a strong position to pivot into something more fulfilling.

Hope that helps.

Stay or go ?

I'm at an early stage tech start up and gaining experience in an industry that I like. However, I am getting no formal training or sales coaching. Everything I've done so far (Inc. Targeted marketing and prospecting) has been self taught and I feel like I am lacking professional knowledge if I was to move onto a different company, especially considering that I am not involved in the full sales cycle.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?

Additional Posts in Cyber Security Bowl

Have any of you pursued a graduate certificate in cyber security? If so, did you find any value in it? I currently have Bachelors and Sec+. I’m looking to obtain my AWS CCP in the few coming weeks and was looking for what to get next. I entertain the idea of continuing to pursue my education but I don’t want to incur too much debt with a masters.
