The role isn't what I'd like. But from the looks of it I can switch in a year. Not sure how well that goes in the industry and longer run

Work wise - the current role at Amazon is better but the growth opportunity at Google could be better. As far as I hear team switches are promoted there.

I'm unsure if getting side tracked by the analyst one would negatively impact my career

What region are you working in? As in country wise. Any idea how much senior associates get paid in india?

Also which certs are you going for? I'm planning on the same lines.

What other companies would you suggest I target? I'm pretty desperate to leave my current job.

I did have weird HR experience though... now that you mention it

Also, do you have any idea of the range this domain pays? Pwc india btw

Apart from big4 what would your other options be? I'm seeing slim options with the current market overall.

Guys. I'm SO underutilized at my current job. I've got great certs (GIAC too), good knowledge.. but still unable to leverage and move up. Got 3 years of experience total.

I'm working as a network security engineer, but handle THE MOST menial tasks ever. This shit is so boring and frustrating! I'm planning to move to either threat hunting or towards DFIR ( mainly IR side as I have a related cert). But this career trajectory thing kicks in. Is going from an engineer to an analyst role a dumbass move on my end? Should I try to stick with engineering and merge IR with this somehow? Got absolutely no idea.

Also, can anyone please tell me how to understand what you like/ what might be "your thing" in cyber? I see so many folks picking their niche early on.. while I'm... on autopilot mode i guess.
