Thinking about changing career paths from PMing to IT/IS Cyber Auditing... Don't have exp in auditing. Any suggestions or things to think about before/while doing so? Strong opinions? Pay change etc? Not to be an ass about it but more for reference with regards to salary, currently a Senior Consultant with roughly 7/8 years of exp making around $130k. Will there be a drop? Should I expect a rise etc? Thanks in advance!

Am I right to question my salary in my situation?

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??
