Or Brian Varner, 35, who swapped a job with the U.S. Department of Defense breaking into networks in the Middle East and other hot zones to be a security engineer at Symantec Corp.
"I have a blank canvas to paint whatever I want," says Varner, exulting at the lack of bureaucracy, not to mention his ability to work remotely from Florida.
