What are some exit opportunities from IT Risk Advisory? I feel like the work I do isn’t technical enough to get a position in industry such as IT Director, Security Manager, etc.

It’s not, if you want something more technical you have to gain outside knowledge and try to leverage into a more technical role. IT risk advisory just sets you up for IT audit and compliance roles

It audit roles. Got a few clients who were x it auditors

like

A1, I agree, but it also depends.
When I worked at ITRA at EY, we did some Internal Audit Co-Sourcing for Fortune 100 bank and the had more than 30 IT audits and handful of them were super technical. A lot of people who spends a few years on them exit either in technical IT management roles or more technical IT consulting.

If you do ITGCs testing to support External Audit or some SOX compliance work, then yes, you won’t get much technical knowledge

like

True. Cuz most working in ITGC and SOX compliance are tunneled thinking they lead the world

Leave public for IA at a very large company that has audit teams dedicated to the area you’re interested in (security, digital, etc.). Leverage that experience after a few years to transition into either a functional role or technical consulting.

I'm 32 and looking to make a career change. Previously I've been in sales, sales QA and some analyst position. I want to transition into learning programming and decided the best roadmap for me would be to learn Salesforce, land an entry level admin job and develop my skills over time to transition into programming.

How realistic is it to go from no computer science degree, to getting Salesforce certs and an admin role?

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on.

Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?
