Cybersecurity consultants, how much are you getting paid?
Most of the posts here are of SDEs and PMs so I'm just posting this for visibility of cybersecurity engineers/consultants/analysts. Where do you work? How much do you get paid?
Consultant don't get package that much at early stages in service based companies. Either try to learn all the things EY is doing. Eg: start with web, api, then gradually move to mobile, network, CLOUD, devsecops and red team then jump to product based company, or internal switch to different location. Don't compare with dev. Just focus on the skills, you will get paid better soon.. then do some certs also.. OSCP becomes standard now... just get that. Offsec increased the price range and now only 3 months labs available, but that's the different story though..
Pennies!
Cyber security is not at all paid well in India. High paying jobs are rare and work is pathetic
8 YOE, 22 LPA
Being a Security analyst i get around 6lpa as a 1.5 yoe, and pay might get changed to 2x or 3x for same yoe in some product based companies
Companies that provide pentesting as service they pay around 3-9 lpa for a 1-3 yoe person
