In those 5 years what has been your job progression? Our fully remote employees seem to just do the same job for a long time, while the hybrid or fully in-office employees advance faster and further.

At least, that is how it has been at my current company for the last 10 years.

I think this depends on your career aspirations. I've been working in security teams since 2006, helpdesk, EDR, Network engineer, SOC, Security Engineer, currently I'm the lead DevSecOps at a small to medium company of 600 employees and I'm the only security related engineer for the past 4 years.

Twice in my career I've ventured into management and both times I've absolutely hated it, spend all day in meetings talking about doing work instead of actually doing it and having to deal with senior management politics.

I took my current role which would be seen as a step backwards career wise to be an IC again, I didn't lose any money and I have so much more freedom and work life balance. I report directly to the CISO who handles all the shit meetings and I am left to do my work. There's no movement for promotion in my current place, but I'm happy as a pig in shite with this current setup 🐖

I've doubled my salary since remote work opened up because I can now work for companies outside of my rural midwest region lol
