Currently in consulting doing mainly IT Audit work and just received an offer for a GRC analyst role at a small (but growing) tech company. Has anyone else made the move from IT Audit to GRC who can provide some perspective? I’m trying to move my career more towards cyber work and I think this is the right move, so just looking for some advice.

Why not just jump to a more junior role in Cyber already? If that’s your ultimate goal might as well not wait, and start now.

I started at a company 4 months ago. Remote position. Didn’t receive equipment or access until 2 months in. Boss rarely hits me up. No training or projects. Other than 1 report I send daily, I am sitting all day, waiting. Big company. Pretty sure I was a diversity hire and in comparison to my peers, under-qualified. I’m blessed bc salary is great and remote role, but not challenged and if ever a lay off - I’d for sure be on list. I can do personal things and side hustle, but what would you do?

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.
