CSIS and CSE pay like garbage. I could have helped my country but instead I opted to write enterprise software for 5 times the money

Sometimes, these large companies tack on too much "necessary" incident "remediation" actions with Arbitrary Due Date SLAs that completely wrench any ongoing work. And ongoing, strategically defined ""muh high i
