PM work?

Most of the BS with this job isn’t the actual controls/testing. It’s managing a billion things and having to constantly follow up with someone about something

I agree! PM can be great and you're actually getting compensated for all of the management that you're doing.

I think PM like others have said would definitely make sense. But I also see people move to risk/advisory roles to some extent...or you could do some kind of audit control/preparedness through consulting? Not entirely sure how lucrative that would be though
