CISSP, TOGAF and most security certifications have street cred. However discussions around certification value tend to become like political or religious discussions with strong points on both sides. Here are some authoritative sources and you can decide for yourself:

Thanks a lot! I didn't know about CISSP. I do expect dev crowd to be more skeptical about it, but from what I've seen Enterprises play it safe in consulting world and tend to go after these certs.

None agreed. I had that question for a long time.

I am surprised by this. I would've thought it meant something useful in consulting world!

Certified Ethical Hacker https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certified_Ethical_Hacker is useful not just in the pentest field.

Not worth it. Not that well respected by people in the industry

Which ones do you consider meaningful ?

for what the CEH tries to do? the OSCP is much better

Edited:typo

Not necessarily CEH, rather certs that you consider meaningful

Thanks for the link. I have not heard of this before!

Look for certifications needed to be "partner of" {{bigCompanyName}} - this usually lead to either beign able to buy direct from them, having good discounts, or both (like Cisco).

This certs usually are not listed in the exam cram sites

None really? Now even AWS? I also heard good things about scrum master certifications, but I have only been working professional for two years and it seems like everyone thinks they are all useless.

To people saying none. What about in a freelance/consulting context?

If you are not already internet famous wouldn't you lose work to others who can brag about their list of certificates?

I suspect this has to do more w/ the audience here. Probably for more sde type works, certs do not matter. But any work with higher level design/arch. etc may need these.

None. Unless someone else is paying for it.

None.

None.
