At what point do you decide to pivot and go do something else? Been stuck in a data analyst role wanting to do financial crimes work for the last year as my firm has been unable to get the work. I enjoy the balance but going to work bored each day is unsustainable for me. When do people usually call it quits and how do you start?

Buddy, please if they pay you well, its just a job, im in a meat grinder every day, while not boring, its extremely grueling do be doing this week in and out, chase the paycheck and have a life outside of work.

If you want to pivot, then pivot. I just think in this job market it is way more challenging than people think it is. It isn't really a great time to be pivoting to something else.

Feels like most people were tryna run hard and fast away from fin crime / KYC /AML back in the day, but I guess times change.

Why was that?

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's Master's in Management. They both have the same requirements, generally speaking, including a field immersion course that serves as a capstone in the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
