Just to clarify: I'm in 3rd year of sw eng at uni and I've seen more or less what's the deal.
Sticking to a sw eng job for your entire career would be a stupid move, you need to aim for a management position.
Other good possibilities are to take an MBA after graduation and get an uber paid job in some major consulting firm, or, if you want a more interesting job, to work in netsec/infosec.

If you do the above, hope to Christ you have "analysts" below you so you can -you know, be a human.

Ethical Hacker
Companies hire you to hack their system and then tell them how much their security team sucks

Information security.

I work in network security/malware analysis/incident response and in terms of pay-to-enjoyment ratio, it's probably one of the best you can get.

>>47324790
Pretty much. Though penetration testing almost always involves a TON of paperwork and "soft skills". That's one reason why I didn't take it up.

>>47321578

Any job that:

1. Matches up with your dumb-ass interests
2. Pays enough to fuel your dumb-ass purchases
3. Leaves you rested enough after work for your dumb-ass hobbies.
>>
>>47324790
>ethical hacker
How's that possible? Hacking is illegal and is therefore against conventions.
>>
>>47325342
You sign a contract for each penetration testing engagement.
