Has someone transitioned to industry from IT audit? I'm literally taking screenshots and documenting all the time, doing nothing technical. Will it be possible to get s job in industry offering 125k with CPA+CISA after a couple of years of experience?

I mean, that's literally what IT audit is. There are definitely well paying IT audit jobs out there depending on COL (not sure about your specific range). But I would never go back to the days when I was a control tester taking screeenshots lol. Was so miserable in that job.

Yup.

Maybe. The buck twenty five is the hard part.

I mean I would switch jobs whether it’s a big 4 or industry. If your not learning anything then you arnt on a complex/big client I think and people are under estimating your ability to learn more and halting your growth. Learning about different systems and now with the move to cloud there’s a lot of ground to cover. Also I’m not sure what your level is because in m/hcol average for a senior is 90-130 depending on the level. So you should get way more in industry… also I have multiple coworkers who left for 30-50% increases. I find it funny that people like to talk down to IT audit but probably because I do see how you can fall through the cracks and only take screenshots

I was recently offered a “promotion” from Senior Director to… a Senior Director with a much bigger team.

I’m basically doing the same role the VP did before me (brand, campaigns, strategy, design, web, content all under me).

I was offered NO pay bump with the additional responsibility and NO title change. My base is 200k… and my highest paid direct makes 180k for doing about 1/2 the work. I get no equity because we’re private.

I work for a very profitable tech company. Is this fair?
