CISSP will 100% lead to higher salary

like

One for security and one for audit. If you mostly do audit/attest work and want to stick with it, CISA is prob worth your energy. If you’re more security/cyber or want to break out of audit CISSP may be a better choice

like

You can study for and pass the CISA in a month. Take the CISA first- then CISSP. Studying for the CISA will prep you for the CISSP, which is no joke.

like

CISA is way easier and less time intensive, but less applicable to what you described.

^thats really not a bad idea. I’d prob go that route if I was considering one or both of those

It doesn't help that he always presents outdated ideas and throws UX out the window. I know that I know my stuff and keep up with best practices.
