On the market and looking for something new. My options can be mostly divided into two groups, Engineering or Data Science Manager at larger companies (Tech, but not FAANG) and Analytics Director at non-tech, or pre-IPO tech companies.
Thoughts on comp differences and career growth in both roles? I consider myself a “Big picture” sort of person and have found that doesn’t always work out so well in engineering, though the money and tool/tech stack control/access is usually better.
I’m leaning towards the director roles, but wondering if it’s a mistake long term.
