I took and passed the CISSP during the initial 3 years in of my Sec+. Is it even worth paying the $150 to CompTIA to renew my membership? I know the CISSP covers it from a CE perspective, but not $$$

You have a good point. I do support the government and know how they are with certifications.

No. If you have the CISSP you are inherently more qualified.

See link above people.

In Federal CISSP trumps Sec +. It is an IAT Level III certification, Sec + is IAT Level II. https://images.app.goo.gl/EB73rVWSEDqYhiV97

Totally understand that... my question was more around whether it’s even value-add to keep paying CompTIA to maintain my membership/very with them if I’m already in with ISC2 (my CISSP).

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
