If there is a CVE is has value to your career. You have public recognition that you found one which means someone looking for someone to hire will find you. In turn you are more valuable because a few people are looking. If you company wants to keep you they better give you a proactive raise.

Until it is common to verify the quality of the CVE the above will remain true. Perhaps the CVE system needs a "shame" system so that potential hiring manages find you on the list of incompetent people not to hire. (undoubtedly libel laws will make this impossible)
