It’s now 2020 and the industry has not changed. Investigators are still working under “burned-out” conditions. It’s terrible. I as well as many others are looking for a career change. Working for the government side may be better, but working for companies that only worry about profit over National Security, I would NOT work with. If I knew then what I know now, things would have been different. National Security should NOT be for profit industry.
