Just keep in mind one company's idea of data scientist could be vastly different from another's. Eg DS at Google have extremely math / statistics heavy interviews whereas Facebook (non-core) DS is almost exclusively SQL. Also, you should also look at some series B and C startups, oftentimes you'd be able to work on a lot cooler stuff there.

Agreed. 2-3 years back Facebook had high standards for their DSs. Recently, I see a lot of ordinary profiles getting in. As you said mostly BI/Sql stuff. Any growing startups that you’d recommend?

AMEX

Thanks. Amex doesn’t pay well. They offered me 90K for an analytics manager position.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

Coming to the realization that consulting is not for me (tech person) feeling angry that salaries at D will never be on pair with FANG and that leadership is not tech focused. For example you could be a soul contributor at fang making 240k and people at Deloitte wait 10+ years to earn that as Senior Managers because they need to climb the corporate ladder. It seems super clear cut to me now, if you want to make money in tech don’t join consulting firms. Am I wrong?
