Ya man, bro need to wake up. Audit still audit, just which industry and regulation to follow. Trying to humble brag this low end job. Tsk.. the pay is still bad.

not true, scroll linkedin, you will find many that have made the switch. banks also have an internal split by which sectors they serve. your valuation, project financing etc need people that know more about the sector than FS knowledge itself.
industry expertise itself is not hard to pick up anyway...

Yeah, FS audit has the worst peak. Year round, high expectations since frequent inspections, tons of work.
