Security queue burnout, what do you do?
I've been dealing with a ton of burnout and basically at my breaking point, the other two engineers on my team are pretty much in the same situation. Our security queue is just endless.
We literally can't get any work done because of the security queue, and it's not like the security queue is our ONLY job, we have to do an infrastructure migration and keep up with other tasks on top of it but it's IMPOSSIBLE with the queue, and we can't fall behind on it either so we're basically being pulled in two different directions and it's so tiring.
We're constantly flooded by alerts that we have to respond to and they can take HOURS to resolve and get us nowhere 99% of the time. Is everyone's job like this? How common is it? I'm not really sure what to do right now and considering just leaving and finding a different job.
