Has anyone jumped within one year? How did it go, were you able to get SA? Thinking of applying and going somewhere else to get SA in a cyber role

If you’re jumping as a college hire after 1 year, yes you can get a SA position but it will be at a lower tier firm. Prob best to stay until you get senior where you are

I wouldn't jump for the title until you're in a position where you've earned the title and you haven't received it yet.

I would jump for the pay, but make sure you jump to somewhere you wouldn't mind staying at for a while. You won't have a great resume if you try to jump again with only 11 months at two different firms.

I assumed you wanted to stay in consulting. Jump to industry is different. You can potentially get 50% at FAANG, maybe 30-40% at other places, but I still would recommend making sure you want to stay there at least 2 years.

Im in cyber and the first year associates who got SA this year clearly stand out and already operate at that level. I actually know quite of a few across all cyber who got it. If you didn't get it, you probably aren't ready. If you are able to land a SA role somewhere, that's great but I'd be concerned about meeting expectations at a new firm.

Thanks!

How do you approach a firm recruiting you when you weren't looking to move? It would be similar work, but I could negotiate a significant salary boost which would help my family reach financial goals faster. I like everything about my firm, but the pay is on the low side. I've never interviewed when I wasn't eager to leave my current job, and I'm uncertain how to discuss that with the recruiter & interviewer. I want to leverage it, but don't want to sound greedy.

I have been at my company for 3.5 years. One year ago (2.5 years into my employment with them) they re-leveled everyone and I was bumped to an entry level position on the terms that they changed my job title when they re-leveled, so “technically” I am at the early stages of my new title. Even though the job duties did not really change.
I’m not sure the best way to approach this. Has anyone else had a similar experience or know how I should advocate for myself?

Home office preference question. I am getting ready to redo the layout of my home office. One option I'm considering would have my desk facing a wall.

I would face the wall so that I would have a better background for video conferences (am on about half the day) and also my cord situation would be cleaner.
