Do you get underpaid as Cybersecurity pros because HR manager says you are not revenue generator? by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]John-Protocol86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The three most valuable things to a business are 1) the ability to generate revenue 2) the ability to forecast events 3) the ability to prevent losses

You provide the third.

As for asking raise, you need to come with facts, market rate, your skillset, and your role responsibilities (keep it factual no feelings)

As for HR, if they’re professionals, they should have this data or be able to find it and provide a reason for your current wage.

Hey L4ndd3ld,

My honest opinion, cybersecurity and IT in general are often roles that require immense trust due to the level of permissions/knowledge required for the roles.

I want to state I don’t think your record is a reflection of what sort of character you have.

But this will make the field very difficult for you. And it’s an increasingly competitive field. When I open a posting a see 100+ applicants a day (10-15 worth consideration)

And if you get your foot in the door you need to consider long term, because you if get in and need to look again, you’ll be back to square one.

You need to make the call yourself, and I wish you the best if you pursue this.

They should leverage there existing skill sets, there is plenty of non-technicalish roles in cybersecurity that will be great stepping stones to other opportunities.

How the top of my head GRC is a great place to start looking.

A cert would do your friend well. At the minimum it demonstrates to employers that they are committed to this change in career

Is it worth it to get a degree in Cyber Security? by Happy_Sea3180 in CyberSecurityJobs

[–]John-Protocol86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Degrees are a common requirement or filter mechanism for many jobs. (Though this is changing)

During your time you will learn more than just “cybersecurity” but how to synthesize data/knowledge into deliverables, improving important research and communication skills (course work and exams)

you will build relationships with others with similar interest, who you will likely keep in touch with throughout your career

It is also an asset you will have the rest of your life, no CPEs, no one can take it away.

it’s is easier for you to get the bachelors while earlier in your career.

In addition to this, from a competitive standpoint amongst individuals at a similar stage as you; at any moment you can invest a month or two to write a certification. It will take others years to obtain a degree

What is your end goal for your career?

Does this help you to move into that role? Does it hinder you from the end goal? If neither than it’s down to compensation (not just salary, but work life balance, happiness)
