I'm a data scientist (a mix of computer scientist, statistician, and business analyst) for a Fortune 200 company. Had to get my MBA to get the job. It's pretty good on the whole, the work is often very interesting and the money's good, though I do have A LOT of student loans to pay back. Hopefully there are opportunities for advancement, but I'm not sure what direction that would be in since it's such a specialized field.
is this like data analytics? I am looking to possibly do my MS in data analytics and were curious about people in the fields thoughts about it.
as for me, chemical engineer, graduated in june. working in a management development program in the flavors and fragrances business. So far in my first 6 months, it has been mainly project and process work with some management training as well. I enjoy it and get paid pretty decently.
