I work in this practice. For the most part the term advisory is incorrect. On the technology risk side, the vast majority of the work is IT Audit, SOC reports, IT internal audit (mostly IT audit).

Hours vary by client, you’ll generally have a busy season as an IT auditor somewhere between October and February. However, for the most part the hours aren’t as bad as regular external audit. Most of the work isn’t extremely technical, and a lot is tedious and boring. Exit ops generally include more of the same, but I’ve seen several people pivot into consulting/implementation/cyber security.

There are some Advisory roles within the Risk Advisory group (Risk transformation, cyber security).
