Is the financial reporting/SEC reporting manager career worth it in the long run? What’s the most money I can see if I reach Director level?

Manager salary should be around $150k, Director $300k and then you'd get LTI of 50%-100% of your salary depending on company performance. You could turn transition to Controller / VP levels at smaller orgs too. I've worked in that department in a few different organizations... I would find that the quarter-ends are long and exhausting, and the months in between are boring. Some orgs are better than others. It is great experience either way and an excellent career path to get the experience and then move on.
