Enjoy it, bud—at 1.5 YOE, that’s an amazing place to be right now.

Are you happy? Is your WLB good?

like

I’m not a hard person to make happy, so it’s a double edge sword there. First job out of college.

WLB is good I can’t complain, then again I have no idea what to compare it to

That's more than double what I made out of college. That should seem like a ton of money for a first job. Just be smart with it, pay off any loans, invest early, and be grateful.

I don't know much about Cloud Security, but I don't know if it's fair to compare that against software engineering.
