Over 70% of cybersecurity professionals often have to work weekends to address security concerns at their organization, according to a new report by Bitdefender.

This intense workload appears to correlate strongly with job dissatisfaction, with around two-thirds (64%) of the 1200 cyber professionals surveyed stating that they are planning on looking for a new job in the next 12 months.

The issue of burnout and job dissatisfaction was particularly profound among UK respondents, with 81% often working weekends and 71% looking for a new job.

    in my country you don’t have to join it. i generally take a look at what they do and its real apparent when they suck up to bosses.

    most unions are like this nowadays over here, but there are good ones.

      ah, thanks for explaining that. if there is an option to join or not join, then the unions would have some incentive to do a good job. but in the usa, that isn’t an option, so every union eventually turns corrupt.

      I’m sure that was done intentionally, to render unions (worse than) useless.
