I was a CISO for a Credit Union, and retired early. Couldn't be happier now, I would never go back to infosec. The stress and anxiety was terrible. Infosec is a target for management if there is a breach, fortunately for me I never had an incident, though. After 3 years my mental state is so much better, I highly recommend retiring/switching carreers if your unhappy in your job.

CISOs that have experienced a breach are worth more than ones that have not.
