Honestly IT audit is a quick way to $$$. Super in demand. My company pays that rate for a manager

try cyber or grc, can get your $ goal easily and you can still leverage your it audit experience. Or go back to school for MBA if you want to pivot or change the career completely

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

I applied for a job and received an offer from my client. 15k+ bump in salary, better benefits/remote work, and responsibilities will give me exposure to all areas of the organization (start up).

I would report directly to the controller and have 1-2 staff reporting to me...
