32

IMO it’s more level than age (and company sponsorship) but in my program I’d say around 32+ people start considering EMBA

Don’t.

Many times companies pay for EMBA which is why people do it

Do employers view them similarly as far as pay goes?

When you can’t get into mba program (aka gmat too low)

Just started a new project with a bank client. Got my client laptop. Opened the web tool they use to change your password across all systems. The https site, wait for it, did not have a SSL cert installed. I get that it's an internal site that requires VPN connectivity, but no cert? Not even a self-signed cert? Really?

Hi! Want to show my commitment, enterprise and dedication to a pivot to cyber. Seek advice. 20 YOE Communications/research and consulting background. Earned Security+ and CIPP/US. Aspire to CISSP, but know I qualify only for associate (ISC)2 member until 5 years in industry. Can't seem to get to job offer stage landing first role. Should I strive to get CISSP now, even though I can't list it formally until I achieve the required industry experience? Thanks.

I want to use these TAS roles to move into more M&A advisory roles like IB/Corp Dev. PwC comp is a decent amount higher due to the $10k salary increase so it makes the decision a bit harder. Would CMAAS make it impossible to make the jump to IB-type roles due to how much technical accounting is involved?
