Why does Internal Audit get so high paid?

It doesn’t? Internal audit pay is about the same as, or lower than, most accounting roles, and significantly less than finance or more specialized forms of accounting

Given that there’s advisory seniors in public accounting making $150K I’m not sure why that’s so hard to believe. You’ll definitely see higher numbers from accountants at consulting firms. And in industry for HCOL/VHCOL and tech/financial services, but I also know people making that in LCOL/MCOL and energy/mining

I don’t know if so high is the right word but it’s specialized like how tax is

External audit is specialized and not highly paid

like

IA is not that high they all lie to you about the pay and then hire you low

I could be wrong but IA seniors/manager make more than External audit seniors/manager with better WLB as far as I know

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
