Considering going from accounting to commercial banking, thoughts? 2 years with EY, 6 months with RSM but these accounting salaries aren’t cutting it. If you’ve made the transition, what is it like?

I worked until Senior 3 at EY then switched to Siegfried. Doubled my EY senior 3 salary my first year at Siegfried. Easy way to make some good money for a couple years if looking to transition to something different.
