The answer

It is not permissible to remain an accountant for a company that deals with Riba (usury/interest), as this falls under cooperation in sin. Repentance and seeking forgiveness are obligatory for what has passed. Money earned before knowing its impermissibility is permissible, but after knowing, it becomes unlawful. What has been spent of it does not need to be compensated, but what remains must be disposed of in charitable causes.
