I was in risk assurance for 2 years and left as a senior associate to join Deloitte consulting - cloud strategy practice. Salary went from 87.5k to 145k.

Currently at 3.5 YOE in HCOL and about to make another jump to a FAANG in January. TC will be 260k

Sorry D2, didn’t see this before responding. I spent the better part of a year studying on nights and weekends to upskill on cloud technology (running through all three associates and 2 pros for AWS) and have recently been spending time on Azure. Rough estimate is about 1,000 hours of self learning/year so far.

RA has a lot of highly marketable skills as they relate to understanding business processes, change management, technology, etc. Couple that with some certs and anyone can break into cloud strategy.

6 years in audit - 6 years in accounting advisory - director of technical accounting and sec reporting (yes a pay jump)

Is it crazy to leave my job at EY to take a lower paying position in industry? I'm a recently promoted tax manager making about 140k. I've been considering going to industry for a while, gotten a couple offers, but they're all pretty low (<$120k). Honestly, the $20k difference isn't that much, but I've also been considering taking job that pay maybe $90k and doing work on the side (my own "firm"). But it also feels strange to accept such a lower salary. Thoughts?
