I’ve gone back and forth between prog and strategy. I like being well versed in both because it opens up so many doors, plus your strategies only improve with better understanding of the possibilities prog market.

Analytics is a bit more of a black hole because I feel once your on that path, your on that path for good, for better or worse. Prog gives a bit more flexibility.

Perhaps that's true with analytics if you wanted to stay in advertising, but it definitely gives flexibility to change industries

It’ll be tough. If you’re very technical and detail-oriented, it’ll be an easier transition. But most prog people I know eventually leave because it really opens the door to much less stressful work.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
