I work in security and have been involved with hiring at several “brand name” companies including FAANGs in hot tech markets, and it’s always been a talent pipeline issue more than anything.
Oh come on. It is just an excuse. Look up what FAANG pays for those jobs ( total compensation ). Pay 2x. Get people from FAANG to work for you.

I mean I could spend the kids' college fund turning the house into an impenetrable fort with bulletproof glass, booby traps, 2 ton doors and concrete walls; or I can spend a few thousand and get a really grumpy window cat so a burglar moves on to an easier target.
- lawnchair_larry 5y agoThat’s a pretty silly way to look at it. There are a lot of reasons, but the most obvious is that you just moved people around, you didn’t get any new ones. It’s zero sum in the short term, because there are many many years of latency to correct the talent pipeline on something like security.
