That's why despite having some knowledge about infosec, I don't want to make it my job. Pentesting looks like fun, but the real job seems to be about writing reports, applying policies you know don't make sense and not applying policies you know make sense, and if you block something, you get yelled at because you blocked it, allow it and you get yelled at because you allowed it. This is the kind of job where you are given a list of a thousand software and dependencies, get asked about vulnerabilities, find thousands of them, look how relevant each one of them is, write a report about what needs to be fixed/updated, get told it is too expensive and that you should find a cheaper solution and half ass something that you know is both too little and too much just to fit the allocated budget.
