Is there any value in getting a CISM if you already have CISSP and 6+ years of work experience?

Personally, I see no value in CISM if you already have the CISSP. I would suggest going after more targeted certs after CISSP. Are you interested in cloud? Go for CSSP, CCSK, AWS, Azure, GCP certs.

I passed CISM a couple years ago and am studying for CISSP currently.

There is value, though I would say, not a lot somewhere in the range of 10 to 15 percent.

Very low value, I’d do targeted certs. CISM if you didn’t have CISP already

I would say it has value for career growth rather than knowledge wise. CISM helps you get shortlisted and gets you past the recruiter and to meet the hiring team. This is more relevant if your goal is to move to a manager position and aiming higher.

Has anyone found a way to automate salary certifications?

We get about 3-5 requests daily to fill out salary certifications for our employees in EMEA.

At the moment, we have to do all of them manually. We open a pdf, then open their employee file and plug away. It's tedious and time-consuming, but the banks I found won't accept an internal salary certification for some reason. They're adamant about using their form. Has anyone come across this?

A few months ago, there were articles about how Juniper Park/TBWA’s hand sign saved the life of a kidnapped girl in a car. But the next day, reporters asked the guy who called the cops about it and he said he had no idea what the hand sign meant, he actually called the cops because the kidnapped girl kept mouthing “Help me.” I’ve heard of agencies exaggerating sales results or click through rates in case studies, I really hope JP/TBWA isn’t exaggerating about, literally, saving someone’s life.
