You can do finance analytics for any company; healthcare, retail, SaaS, etc.

Tech? Any data analysis role might be good, although you’ll probably get blocked from going too high unless you have a masters or PHD in maths as in my experience data scientists run the show for data departments

Come be a Business Analysis Manager at Capital One. Interesting problems, good pay, and good WLB. From there you can easily transition into Product Management if that’s a route you want to take

Try BI Manager at Amazon. You have the right amount of experience and will find many different problems to choose from where your analytics and data skills can be put to good use. Usual Amazon caveats apply

Hello, I am in USI GES tax at DUSI. I love my job but not my team and mgmt anymore. I'm a performer and I'm dumped with work of 2 ppl while others are searching for work. I am burned out.

I resigned and accepted a job with EY GDS with a huge pay bump that DUSI can't match but I also gave up my potential promotion for 2023.

I've been feeling bad about putting my papers down and letting go off my promotion but I am really tired. I took up this job as an escape.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.
