Are the exit opportunities better in Internal Audit/Business Process than IT Audit? All I hear is how awful IT Audit is but don’t hear as much complaining from the business side

I agree this type of job isn’t not as exciting in a max telework situation. I’m tired of sitting in front of my computer all day.

Well, here's me complaining about the business side then lol. I am counting down the days until I leave.

The work is awful, but I do feel the business side has slightly better exit ops. The IT people who leave generally go into other IT compliance roles (IT audit, cybersecurity).

IA side can be more broad, including other IA groups (obviously), financial analyst, forensic, even IT audit. Business side is just a broader experience in general, where we touch IT stuff but don't specialize in it. Also helps that some IA people have CPA, which greatly helps exit ops, while IT people, at best, have CISA (which does nothing if you're trying to get out of IT compliance).
