I’m currently a senior 3 auditor and increasingly detest my job every single day. I’ve been thinking about consulting but don’t know exactly what they do and the detailed nature of the work. What are my options outside of audit, staying within the firm? Any insight appreciated.

What do you not like about audit? If you hate internal controls but like playing around with data, flux analysis, having to use your brain at least a little bit and having new clients every month or so, look into Financial Due Diligence (transaction diligence at EY). I was a newly promoted senior in audit that transitioned to another firm as an SA1 in FDD - currently making a little over 100k in HCOL and enjoying the work.
