If you don’t want to do audit don’t waste your time. Go with consulting 100%. You can always go to industry if you don’t like consulting, but it will teach you so much that you won’t get in audit.
100% do EY tech consulting, much more interesting work, higher pay, and better exit oppz
I would really take a step back and consider the long term benefits of a CPA outside of an accounting career track. Not to mention the money you’ll leave on the table out of the gate by forgoing consulting to pursue Audit.
Also, does EY sponsor CPA for non-assurance in the US?
Honestly there’s not much of a compensational difference between the two roles. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m starting at the staff level. However, my friend who got an audit offer from EY has a comparatively lower package than what I’ve been offered by Deloitte.
Also, I believe EY sponsors CPA for non-assurance in the US. Both my consulting interviewers have CPA and said so.

CPA is needed if you want to be an accountant. Figure out what you want to be first.
Importance of a CPA outside of accounting is questionable at best
I would stick to the CPA path if your long term goal is to stick with accounting or even IT Audit space. Maybe a good exit plan would be a controller or CFO in the long-run. However, if your interest is outside of that, I would pursue something else to study. The $5-10k difference you see from your peers would be meaningless 5-10 years from now. Think about what is going to be important for the next 10-20 years and how your skill sets fit into that. The difference in comp you see right now can be caught up easily with 1-2 internal or external moves as needed.
What’s the EY position
Is this tech risk or whatever it is called?
Tech consulting. You’ll hate yourself if you choose accounting as a career.
