A lot of people I know who moved groups from tax/assurance to advisory did so decently smoothly (politics aside) because they knew people in the group and impressed them enough to have the support to move over from that side. It probably can't hurt if you're on an advisory project and doing well on.

I'm sure every case is different, especially depending on need, market and the skills you have

I’m a woman in my mid 20s and constantly face situations where people outside of cyber (still within the company) that I’m dealing with (older men in particular) who always push back against my cyber/technical recommendations even with managers cc’d.

Hi 👋. I posted here a few weeks ago about being nervous conducting a PIP conversation with my team member.

Maybe he’s looking for new jobs already - don’t mind this at all and this would be a good outcome for him overall.
