hi all,
I am currently working in data science field and going forward I want to stay in it. i have done masters from US with certifications and a paper in hand. however my current company wont sponsor for Green card filing. i landed a offer in Amazon for a capacity planning analyst role which doesnt involve much data science and might work on excel and internal tool. also amazon will file GC in EB3 category as opposed to EB2 (in which i qualify)...they have explicitly told that.
I have thought a lot but I am not able to make a decision. could anyone help.
except for Amazon tag and GC filing am not gaining anything. pay also also for Seattle area is less.

If you stay where you're at, where are you going to be in say 3, 5, or 10 years?
If you're thinking that you might just wait until you get a data science role elsewhere, be aware it may or may not happen. These things are dependent on headcount, economy, interviews, luck..
Mine is masters from US with 6 years experience
