Does IT audit generally pay more?

Yes it pays more, you have much more control over flexibility of your schedule, the field is growing and demand far outstrips supply, and there are many cushy exit opportunities where you can make a good salary and causally put in 40 hrs per week. The downside is, if you have an accounting background the areas you can pivot to are much more limited compared to financial audit. So it all depends on what you are looking for, if your focus is outside work and you want a flexible secure job with good WLB then IT audit. If you have your sights set on seeing how high you can climb in the corporate world, fin audit, get your cpa and pivot as a senior to finance/M&A.

This is the way 😭

Yes, but it pigeon holes you and is kind of boring. Especially for the first few years.

Yes, this is what made me hesitant to leave to financial audit lol

I mean long term, you are going to have a cap any time you’re a cost center.
