Hi Fishes,
I recently got an offer for Cyber security advisory at PwC India . They gave a 20% hike on the current amount. Thing is that l, the technical interview told me that it is not a software/coding type of position and asked me multiple times if I was interested to do that. Is that a red flag?

A 5% raise is pitiful. You deserve better.
Also internal audit is probably the only accounting job more boring than tax. Worst job I ever had. Just make sure you are okay with that. The opportunities for internal transfer may or may not exist, but be aware that is what they tell everyone in IA. "Join this job, you might be able to leave it" is not a great selling point imo.
I second this. I jumped from big4 tax to IA after 2 years and absolutely hated it. SOX testing tucked my soul out and I ended up quitting in less than 1 year. Waste of my education, cpa, and pain at big4.
No way I would jump for a 5% raise. Within a year you would likely be making more at your current job
Don't listen to the people complaining about a 5% jump. You have less than 2 years of experience. You are still entry-level with little value in the industry. If you were offered more, it's because you got lucky.
If you don't care for money long-term, do whatever you want. If you do, stay in PA longer. You mentioned the company having good advancement opportunities, they don't. Generally, In-house is more likely to hire-in than promote organically.
Those who thrive outside of PA in traditional accounting roles (i.e. tax or audit) are of the minority. These people are either lucky or exceptional at their job. I'm not trying to say you're not exceptional, but to make life changing decisions under the assumption that you are is very irresponsible. So I re-emphasize: if career success is your goal, grind longer in PA.
The thing is, do you want to get out of tax? The longer you stay, the harder it is. If you see this as an opp to pivot out of tax and try something diff, then probably not a bad idea.
Why wont kpmg let you transfer??
