Looking to leave Cybersecurity Consulting and join FAANG. My role currently is not the most technical however - more on the cybersecurity strategy and risk side.

Any ideas if what kind of roles I should look at?

Anything would be great!

TPgM is on the tech ladder. Yes it’s about 25% higher. Difference is you are expected to be a level deeper than what I’d consider to be “conceptually” technical in that you aren’t an engineer, but are more savvy than most.

After you moved in-house, how did you get more comfortable reviewing contracts or counseling on issues you weren’t super familiar with? I was very specialized at my law firm and took a similarly specialized role in-house….but I still get requests to mark-up types of agreements that I never touched at my firm. I’ve been trying to find CLEs to get up to speed, but I’m wondering if this is generally something that gets more comfortable with time…

Hi all 🙂👋🏻 Apologies for such a late post. I have an offer of 18 CTC(1L joining bonus) from Larsen & Toubro Infotech & 12.5 fixed from IBM .
My joining in both are in around May last week. Tomorrow my IBM pre onboarding HR will connect with me. Should I ask for a counter offer tomorrow itself?
Or should I ask 2 weeks before joining?
Many told me that companies revise CTC when the joining date is near, else they show less interest. So should I go for it now itself?
Appreciate ur inputs🙂
