I don't understand why you are asking this question. That's a massive pay raise to do what you want to do. Congrats.

The app is negative because of money - and in this case it's a plus. Absolutely you should do it. If you want to do cyber you'll have to get trained up in it and you might as well be making a living wage while doing so.
Do you want to be doing cleared level IT audit work?
How does this factor into your short term / long term goals?
Money isn't the question here.
I'm not as familiar with the structure of each but if you're going into audit and cyber risk is an advisory role the. It could be difficult internally.
You might have to switch firms and recruit into an advisory/ consulting role is thats where cyber risk is
50% raise? That’s dope esp if you like doing the work

If it's in your wheelhouse, is something you like doing, and aligns with your career plans, go for it!
People on FB generally talk smack about audit and audit related fields because they generally don't pay well, but in this case it pays quite well. 100% go for it.
I appreciate your perspective, MD1. I do enjoy the work and I'm excited for continue to be technical. The money is definitely a plus for me.
Which firm are you joining? Don’t tell me it’s Deloitte.
I don't want to say but it's not Deloitte or GH.

Uhhh... If you expect the WLB to be similar you're getting a $50K/yr raise to live a very similar life as you are doing now - just with different things to focus on during the day. Even if some of that stuff is not exactly what you care about you can use that extra money to invest in yourself like education, training, certs, etc. to get you where you want to go after. And you'll be able to negotiate from the position of someone who has a $150K/yr pay stub from a reputable (I'm assuming) company.
