Hi all,

I am currently working as a consultant, dealing with pentesting web, network and mobile applications.
Recieved an offer to switch into Cloud Security Operations. There's going to be better pay and a more relaxed work-life balance. This would help me pursue more certifications and would also give me more time.
However, I'm concerned about the change in career trajectory. From Pentesting to Cloud Security Operations.
Offer: 17 LPA - 3 YOE
Is the package apt?

Nice to hear about your movement. I too wanted to switch from pentester to cloud security. Can you guide me.

Hi I am new in network pentesting can anyone guide me how to get job in it. I don't have certificatation just have a degree in computer science and knowledge and skills in network pentesting.

Concern about changing trajectory is not an issue. As you said you will have more time so you can always stay in touch with what you love to do. Pentesting might be a task in your new Cloud security role. About CTC there is nothing that is good enough; it's all relative to where you are coming from. What prospect and work life balance do you have currently?

I want to move to cybersecurity 😭 Someone guide me. Currently a BA. with 5+ years of experience

Kaunsi company ka offer hai ?

Package is fine. I’d recommend switching. You can always come back to consulting if things don’t work out. Should give it a try

Which is the new company
