Has anyone made the leap from auditing at a public CPA firm to doing audits at a private firm? I am in the process of switching into becoming a premium auditor for an insurance company and while the benefits and pay look astronomically better, I am wondering how the workload differs? This job is primarily remote unless I’m at a client

This is an entirely different job - apples and cucumbers. I do think your insurance premium audit job will be significantly less work, but public accounting is a long-term career progression game.
