Working in Cybersecurity Startup As a SOC analyst- Grapevine

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I haven't change job in 17 years. I started here as a fresher and I am here still. Salary is bad but I can't blame the organization. Don't want to dwell on past (because I do it daily). 

I am Wintel Server Engineer for 11 years and did that is there to do. Then I was asked to do Infrastructure Management of our Network Security Devices and EDR Solutions. So my job helps the cybersecurity teams of my organization but I don't feel I am really doing cybersecurity. With this profile I do not get interviews calls.

I have taken subscription of Acloudguru, tryhackme and plurasight to upskill myself . Have enrolled myself to SIEM training (arcsight and splunk) basically this training for freshers who want to get into SOC Analyst role.

Now, I don't know what should I do ..I want to be in Defensive Security Operations type role but I need money soonest as well.

I am thinking doing Security +, CEH and CySA certs ...studying is difficult...focusing is difficult.  

What should I do....please help.

Hi,
I am a 2023 passout btech graduate. Currently I am working as a full time SDE (Full Stack) in a well established startup (8 years old , Series A funded). It's been nearly half year here.

My compensation is 10.5 lakh base + 4.5 lakh performance bonus + free lunch and snacks + Insurance (Including parents) benefits 

I am pretty good at DSA (around 2000 rating on leetcode, 4 Star at codechef in 2nd year itself, 2000+ dsa problems)

I have worked in 2 startups as an SDE intern during college days and completed 5 internships overall out of which one was a US based startup. Also, I have many publications under my name over the internet.

I had many offers when I was graduating from college.

Most of the time people say, "Hey, you have done so much so Why are you not working in a big tech". Well I always wanted to work for big tech during college days but after I started working in startups my thought process changed  as here I got the ownership of the product.

Now it has been nearly 1 year since I started working in startups. Should I give it a try for big tech now?

Would like to hear your views guys

Am I doing something wrong?

Need guidance please.
2022 passout. 
Currently working as a Cybersecurity Analyst, the project is more like a Technical Support Role. Have to connect with the user and troubleshooting in their laptop if issue required. Here I have to work in 3 different shifts like for morning 5.30 am or from night 9pm to 6.30 am or at afternoon from 2pm and it's changing weekly. And also have to report to the office now in those timings. 
I want to change the domain to different role like backend or frontend or in the same domain I want to switch to a different company.
Is it good to resign without having any other selection ( I am good to sit without any company for 2-3 months)?

If I resign and will sit for 3-4 months without working in any company, does the next company which I will apply for interviews or openings, will not allow me to sit in their interviews? Or would not go with my resume?
And what could else I have to face .

Need guidance for my career

Hey guys, I'm stuck in an MNC currently without any real world project for almost half an year now. I've been building projects on my own and looking for a switch. Since, situation in the market is a little tight, I'm hardly finding any non internship opportunities for freshers. Kindly let me know of any sources or any suggestions on how to move on from here. Seeing my friends getting fired from FAANG co. and still not get any other offer makes me more disheartened. Please help.

Is anyone hiring freshers(2022 grad)?

Software Engineer

1st Company(MNC | Name Appears in PF) - Worked for 1.6 years. Left yoluantarily in order to
prepare for GATE

2nd Company(startup | Name doesn't Appear in PF) - Worked for 1 year. Was let go citing
performance reasons(Which was completely bullshit) It was just the beginning of Covid

3rd Company(Startup | Name Appears in PF) - loined in the month of June 2020. Worked for 2
months and suddenly they terminated me in 3rd month since 1 was still in probationary period
and they said, my performance was not upto the mark/Which I don't believe)

4th Company/Mid Size Company | Name Appears in PF) - Worked for 11 months. My parents
were looking for a match for me. Left voluantarily, in order to get a high CTC. No problems here

5th Company/MNC | Name Appears in PF) - Currently working here. It's been almost 1.11 years
and counting

One of my frien d had referred me to GE through his senior and the feedback that he got was,I
have changed many companies in short span of time. 
So my question is this:
Iwill remove the second company from my resume and add that experience to the 3rd one
while giving interviews or when the recruiter asks for the cv.
And then once everything is over and at the time of offer release I will provide the proper
documents to HR for bGV. will this work? Has anyone tried this in the past?

The problem is, I cannot completely remove 2nd company as it would reduce my exp and it will
create unnecessary problems w.r.t my passing out date and relevent exp
And I cannot remove the 3rd company as it's name appears in pF forms. Hope you guys are able
to see my dilemma here.

Any/all help will be much appreciated. 
Thanks in Advance.

Which is better and why - working in mssp or working in house SOC?

Cybersecurity(SOC/SIEMl) jobs

Hey all, i was thinking of making a switch now after completing 1.5 years roughly (the while process might take 3/4 months roughly as i need to prepare everything from beginning). Was confused between joining an established company vs a startup.

I personally want to join the former as i want to focus on other interests of mine and am fine with less salary but with less stress and working hours.
My friends are suggesting to for the latter as im still a beginner and should focus more on learning.
Im not very passionate about software development but i would say im av+, what would anyone of you would have done?

I'm working in a very early stage startup as SDE 1.  There are strict deadlines ( that is still okay) but I feel like the engineering is being compromised upon for those. Should I switch since it has only been some months since I started working

Founder

I’ve been working in an early-age startup as a frontend developer and am about to complete 2 years in 1 month. This is my first job. I want to quit immediately and then look for a job by doing some good preparation but I am so confused about what to do. I am actively applying. I am leaving this company coz there’s no increment this year also I have to switch projects frequently. I’ve worked on an MVP alone but the work is not organized like mid-level startups, big startups or MNCs.

My question is simple. Should I leave and then start looking for jobs actively or I should stay here until the job market recovers?

PS - Let me know if someone is hiring for frontend roles.It’ll be a great help

Should I quit my job?

Yoe: 2.5
Tech stack: React Native, React JS
Current: 25 base 

Will Indian startups be willing to hire for this much base in current market? If yes, will the work life balance be absolute shit?

I’m currently working at a startup, want to switch
Please help a fellow SWE. Thanks 🙏
